August & Debouzy acted for Entreprise Minière et Chimique S.A. (EMC SA) in connection with the sale by privatization of the entire share capital of SCPA SIVEX INTERNATIONAL to the Louis Dreyfus Commodities Group, a worldwide leader in the trade, transformation and marketing of agricultural products and raw materials.
SCPA SIVEX INTERNATIONAL, a subsidiary of the state-owned EMC Group, specializes in the transformation, distribution and trade of fertilizers, phytosanitary products and chemical products and developed its business mainly in Central and Western Africa where it is a leader in some of these countries, particularly Cameroon, the Ivory Coast and Ghana.

Cécile Menu-Eisenchteter also advised the company on competition and antitrust issues.
