BLV Realty Group, Inc Acquires Its Affiliate Partner and Preserves Its Brands
NEW YORK, Aug. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- BLV Realty Group, Inc ("BLV Realty" or "the Company") announces that it has entered into an Agreement ("The Agreement") with BLV Group International ("BLVGI") for the acquisition of all of its assets, trading subsidiary and trading interests.
Background
BLV Group International incorporated in Cayman Island was a partnership between BLV Group ("The BLV Group Corporation") parent company of BLV Realty Group, Inc and its Icelandic Investor consortium, which was incorporated to acquire, develop and manage real estate assets globally (except United States). The Icelandic consortium provided equity investment into the partnership while BLV Realty Group, Inc provided expertise services through the setup of affiliate subsidiaries of the BLV Group International, in Europe (England) operating under limited license, by trading under the BLV brand such as the "BLV Realty Marketing Limited, BLV Realty Organization Designs Limited, BLV Realty Lifestyle Group Limited, BLV Realty Personnel Limited, BLV Realty II Limited and BLV Realty Personnel Compensation Limited and in Hong Kong through the subsidiaries, BLV Group Advisors Limited, BLV Realty Organization (Asia Pacific) Limited and Essenza Hotels and Resorts. "BLV Group" through its subsidiary maintained a 35 percent interest in the partnership entity (BLV GROUP INTERNATIONAL) while the consortium maintained a 65 percent interest and BLV Group through its real estate subsidiary (BLV Realty Group, Inc) licensed the various subsidiaries of BLV Group International to provide development management, project management, interior designs and design management services to assets acquired by BLV Group International.
Following the economic downturn and especially the financial turmoil the partnership was unable to fulfill all of its obligations, particularly in Europe (London- England), and BLV Realty Group, Inc agreed to acquire the remaining interests of the consortium by acquiring 65 per cent of BLV Group International.
BLV Realty Group, Inc following the acquisition will restructure the entire assets and trading activities of BLV Group International, by subsuming the operations of the existing BLV Group International European subsidiaries (BLV Realty Marketing Limited, BLV Realty Personnel Limited and BLV Realty Lifestyle Group Limited and BLV Realty Personnel Compensation Limited) into its wholly owned subsidiary BLV Realty Organization (Europe) Inc trading as BLV REALTY ORGANIZATION. It will then surrender 3 of the corporate entities for dissolution. BLV Group Holdings Limited will be amended by name to BLV Group Trademark Holdings Limited to hold the several trademarks both wholly owned or acquired through this acquisition, and will provide trademark license to the operating companies. BLV Realty Personnel Compensation Limited will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of BLV Realty Organization (Europe) Inc offering management and professional expertise services globally.
Both BLV Realty Organization (Asia Pacific) Limited and BLV Group Advisors Limited will become wholly owned subsidiaries of BLV Realty Group, Inc.
The other subsidiaries of BLV Group International not required will be liquidated, or allowed to be liquidated depending on any pending legal issues, as the trading subsidiaries and trading interests are acquired without liability.
BLV Realty Group, Inc is a 100 percent wholly owned subsidiary of BLV Group "The BLV Group Corporation". Following the acquisition of BLV Group International subsidiary companies, BLV Realty Organization, Inc in North America, BLV Realty Organization (Europe) Inc in Europe and BLV Realty Organization (Asia Pacific) Limited will operate as the core real estate trading and services (non asset) subsidiaries with sub-subsidiaries operating through them in various global regions.
BLV Realty Group, Inc intends to sell a majority of the acquired assets of BLV Group International, especially the non income generating assets, with proposal to reinvest the proceeds into new hospitality assets as part of its strategy to boost its hospitality asset holdings.
Caution
BLV Group International is not a shareholder or subsidiary of BLV GROUP "The BLV Group Corporation" (including affiliates and Subsidiaries). The transaction described above has been negotiated based on the current market value for the assets and trading interests. The Board and Management of BLV Realty Group, Inc warrant that it has no management control over the decisions of BLV Group International.
