About

Provided by Noerr

Over 30 experts advise companies from a wide variety of sectors on the establishment, restructuring and defence of successful distribution systems. Topics such as data protection in distribution, mobile commerce solutions, purchasing and merchandise information systems are as fundamental to us as contract management or the division of responsibilities in the supply chain. We will also be happy to assist you in drafting general terms and conditions or individual contracts. We have particular experience in advising businesses of all sizes in their day-to-day business operations - in some cases over decades.
