Dechert has picked up work from key White & Case client Mid Europa Partners, as new partners Ross Allardice and John Markland took roles on the private equity house’s €533m acquisition of supermarket Profi Rom Food.
Allardice (pictured) and Markland, who joined earlier this month from White & Case and Kirkland & Ellis respectively, have advised on the largest ever PE deal in Romania, in a first time instruction for Dechert. The duo have both advised Mid Europa in the past.
