Rymarz Zdort advises the Polcom Group in its merger with Volumetric Building Companies

8 February 2022

Rymarz Zdort advised the Polcom Group (the “Polcom Group”) on concluding a partial scheme of arrangement with a consortium of lenders, and in its subsequent merger with Volumetric Building Companies (“VBC”).

The Polcom Group, with its operations centre based in Gdansk, is one of the leading international manufacturers of steel modular buildings. The Group has completed some of the most innovative hotel projects in North America and Europe, including world-class hotel buildings in New York, Seattle, London, Washington, and Amsterdam.

VBC is a US leader in modular construction, headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with offices in the United States and, through its merger with the Polcom Group, also in Europe. It focuses on constructing modular buildings based on timber modular technology for the multifamily residential market to provide affordable housing for American and European families.

The merger of two modular construction giants will make the newly formed entity the leading provider of optimised, efficient and sustainable modular construction solutions worldwide.

The transactional team of Rymarz Zdort was led by Magdalena Pyzik-Waląg, a partner in the corporate department and head of the Restructuring practice. She was supported by Małgorzata Deruś, an associate in the corporate department, a member of the M&A practice, and Hubert Derdowski, an associate in the corporate department and member of the Restructuring practice.

Advice on tax aspects of the transaction was provided by Leszek Tokarski, a partner in the Tax Department, and Krzysztof Rembierz, a senior associate in the Tax Department.

Real estate aspects of the transaction were handled by Piotr Drzazga, a senior associate in the Real Estate Department.
