Fasken provides a wide range of advice to long-standing client Daiya Foods, including in relation to corporate/commercial matters, board governance, employment, real estate and corporate/commercial matters.
Over the 2019 year, Fasken has advised Daiya on the transition to a new CEO, multiple key commercial agreements, including critical manufacturing agreements, and it's move to a new 400,000 square foot facility in Burnaby (which increases its operating footprint by eight times, providing the company with enough capacity to generate $1 billion in revenue, and also affords increased space for distribution, warehousing and administrative offices). Fasken also advised on the capital financing activity related to the build-out of the new facility.
Ally Bharmal has served as corporate secretary to Daiya's Board for 7+ years and serves as its key legal advisor.
