MEAT SECTOR

The activity of meat sector entities is a necessity to coordinate the whole chain of economic events, starting from the purchase of semi-finished products, through their processing to the delivery of the finished product to the consumer. The whole chain is surrounded by restrictive, but also imprecise and constantly changing, legal regulations, the knowledge of which is necessary to limit the risk of running a business. Our lawyers have extensive experience in advising on the entire production and transport chain, including the outsourcing of services, HACCP.

We offer:

  • consultancy on the regulations governing food safety and nutrition Production of the finished product requires meeting a number of rigorous standards concerning the composition of products, the manner of their production (including veterinary requirements), and their labelling. In all these elements, we have extensive experience in conducting disputes with contractors and representing the manufacturer in administrative proceedings before competition protection authorities, and court-administrative proceedings in cases concerning the quality of agri-food products. We effectively support our Clients also in disputes with consumers.
  • advice in the field of contracts Activity in the food sector is largely based on the arrangement of relations with suppliers and customers to make business profitable not only „on paper”, but with business partners to minimize the risk of disputes (such as „shelf fees”) and meet the growing requirements of the legislator, including the EU, a legislator entering an area which until recently was the domain of private law only. The Law Firm has extensive experience in negotiating contracts with large retail chains and in advising on securing the interests of our Clients at the stage of performance of these contracts. We are no stranger to issues related to „shelf fees” and opinions on competition-restricting practices applied by competitors.
  • consultancy in the field of product distribution Product development and its proper and fast introduction to the market are two different issues, the proper coordination of which is not obvious on the market. The Law Firm has a wealth of practical experience in the field of consultancy covering the distribution of products and the creation of retail chains. Our experience also includes the acquisition and maintenance of premises for business (a chain of stores with more than 200 locations in Poland), including issues related to investment processes.
  • transport Objects of the food industry operate in symbiosis with transport companies. Mutual cooperation, however, encounters a number of problems resulting from the participation of a number of intermediaries in transport. We successfully represent the interests of our Clients in disputes where it is necessary to separate the scope of responsibility of the shipper, carriers (often several), and insurers of each of the parties to the dispute.
