Kraft Names DLA Piper Preferred Provider of Legal Services
Issued: November 01 2009Following a competitive RFP process, international law firm DLA Piper has announced that it has been appointed as preferred provider of legal services to Kraft Foods, the world’s second-largest food company. Effective January 1, 2010, DLA Piper will handle the day-to-day legal needs of Kraft Foods’ international business units, including in Asia, on a non–exclusive basis. The work includes advising on advertising, food law, litigation, IT/IS, contract/commercial, corporate, employment and real estate.
