16 of May, 2024
Gómez-Acebo & Pombo has advised Grupo J. Uriach, S.L.U., a Catalan company specialized in the Natural Consumer Healthcare sector, in the acquisition of the German group Pascoe, leader in this sector in Germany with more than 125 years of experience.

The GA_P team has been led by Daniel Marín, partner of Corporate and has counted with the participation of Carolina Posse, Beatriz Dosdá and Beatriz Riverola, associates of Corporate. The transaction has also been advised by Andrea Díez de Uré and Jesús Urriza, Competition associates, and Mariana Carreño and Iñigo Arrieta, Banking associates.
