You have been asked to identify potential issues considering a beverage company looking to develop a plant to merge companies. There are a few important considerations, the company is based in the US (Seattle) and will be acquiring a company in EU (Ireland). This would give this beverage company entrance to the EU market. Considering this, what are important considerations that the US company should consider in this M&A? (For example, data privacy and data security concerns from merging both companies and operating in the US and EU, contractual commitments including vendors, partners, distributors, intellectual property like trademark and retaining brand in multiple countries, and other essential aspects like record management and preservation for litigation.)
