SSW’s lawyers and tax advisors advised the Aerium fund, the operator of shopping centres, on a transaction worth several hundred million zloty. It consisted in the package sale of the following shopping centres: Bielawy in Toruń, Czyżyny in Kraków and Gulliver in Łódź. The centres’ total rental area exceeded 72,000m2. The transaction was financed by Deutsche Pfandbriefbank. The buyer was the Newbridge fund, which purchases and constructs regional shopping centres and trade parks.
In addition to SSW, the transaction involved: Apleona GVA (also acting on behalf of Aerium) and the law offices of Greenberg Traurig and Deloitte & Arcadis, which advised Newbridge.
