Hoche Avocats advises Derichebourg Group in the transfer of Derichebourg Multiservices to Elior Group.
Creation of a new international leader in contract catering and multiservices with the transfer of Derichebourg Multiservices to Elior Group.
On April 18, 2023, the combined shareholders’ meeting (ordinary and extraordinary) of Elior Group approved almost unanimously (99.9%) the contribution of the Derichebourg Multiservices branch to Elior Group. The General Meeting also approved the governance agreement aimed at respecting the best governance standards in terms of balance and independence over the long term.
This transaction gives the Derichebourg Group a 48.31% stake in Elior Group, taking into account the stake previously held.
The Derichebourg Group has thus created a new international leader in contract catering and multiservices with 134,000 employees and a turnover of €5.23 billion.
The new entity has a balanced profile based on the diversification provided by the multiservice activities and an enriched offer that will enable it to provide all customers with integrated offers and complementary sales.
