Yorkshire-based law firm Schofield Sweeney has advised Kiril Mischeff, a leading UK supplier to the food and beverage industry, on its acquisition of Annessa Imports Limited.
With over 90 years in the food industry, Kiril Mischeff is known for sourcing high-quality foods from around the world. The acquisition of Annessa Imports, which supplies Italian foods to UK shops and restaurants, brings new opportunities for Kiril Mischeff to diversify its product line.
Dimiter Mirchev, group managing director of Kiril Mischeff, welcomed Annessa Imports, commenting, “I would like to welcome the company and its valued staff, customers, and suppliers to the Kiril Mischeff Group family. We look forward to exploring the possibilities and exploiting the synergies that will be created in the combined Group for the benefit of all.”
Domenico Annessa, one of the founding directors of Annessa Imports Limited, said, “Along with all the Annessa Imports staff, I am looking forward to working with all the fellow members of the Kiril Mischeff Group. They are an established and well-respected business and I am looking forward to increasing and enhancing even further the product offering we bring to their customers, old and new and contributing to the future success of the Group.”
Schofield Sweeney, which has offices in Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield, supports clients across a wide range of legal services and sectors. Saby Sambhi, who led the transaction for the firm, commented, “We are delighted to have supported Kiril Mischeff in another of their strategic acquisitions. Our ability to call on specialist support from both our real estate and employment colleagues allowed us to provide a holistic and seamless service, ensuring the transaction was completed in a condensed timescale and before the Autumn Statement, which was crucial to both parties.
“We look forward to assisting Kiril Mischeff with the integration of Annessa Imports Limited into their current group structure and the implementation of their exciting growth plans moving forward.”
