Frank­furt a.M. — McDer­mott Will & Emery has advi­sed Unsere Cham­pi­ons GmbH on further acqui­si­ti­ons. The company took over Child Care Company GmbH, Zwer­gen­welt GmbH as well as MD Kita­Part­ner GmbH.

Child Care Company and Zwer­gen­welt operate kinder­gar­tens and daycare centers, respec­tively, in Munich. MD Kita­Part­ner will be taken over by Our Cham­pi­ons in the plan­ning phase for a new daycare center in Munich and will be accom­pa­nied in the conti­nua­tion of the project.

Our cham­pi­ons operate kinder­gar­tens and daycare centers at seve­ral loca­ti­ons in Bava­ria and Baden-Würt­­te­m­­berg. The majo­rity share­hol­ders of Unsere Cham­pi­ons GmbH are the French Enjoy Group, which has alre­ady built up a network of over 40 daycare centers in France under the name Crèche 1, 2, 3 Soleil, and the Luxe­m­­bourg-based Lavorel Group, which only joined as a new inves­tor at the begin­ning of the year.

McDer­mott regu­larly advi­ses Our Cham­pi­ons on tran­sac­tions, inclu­ding the acqui­si­tion of Munich-based daycare group Isarkids in the first half of 2019.
