Thommessen has assisted Jacobs Douwe Egberts in connection with the takeover of Coop's coffee roastery in Oslo.

The Dutch Jacobs Douwe Egberts group, which merged with the Norwegian coffee producer Firele two and a half years ago, has now also acquired Coop's business.

The transaction was approved by the competition authorities this summer.

Jacobs Douwe Egberts has been assisted by a team led by Hans Olav Lindal and Karl O. Wallevik.
