CASE STUDIES

Australian Food and Fibre to PSP Investments

Overview

Building on previous transactions in 2014 where the Agribusiness Transaction Services team sold Bengerang via Moree, the team were approached by Australian Food and Fibre who was seeking a succession plan for the minor shareholders and older family members from this previously ASX-listed and now private company. Rawdon Briggs oversaw 50% capital placement which was invested into the Joint Venture underwritten and secured by PSP Canada as a long-term capital partner for this expanding cotton and grain-growing agribusiness. Once the transaction was complete, Shaun Hendy and the Colliers International Agribusiness Valuation & Advisory team were invited to submit a quote, and were successful, and provided valuation services for the asset.

The AFF joint venture is the 6th platform for PSP globally, as a ‘buy then operator investor’ seeking world-class assets. Some of their previous acquisitions the Colliers International ANZ Agribusiness team have acted either for our vendors or for PSP through to a transaction completion.

Clifton Hills Station, SA

Overview

Ben Forrest, Nick Dean OAM and Jesse Manuel from Colliers International Agribusiness Transaction Services team were appointed to market ‘Clifton Hills Station’, 16,500 square kilometres of land and “the jewel of the channel country”. Clifton Hills Station is in a league of its own, with a capacity to run 22,000 organically certified cattle on 1.65 million hectares located in South Australia’s north east, on a parcel of land well over half the size of Belgium.

The team executed an exceptional and vast marketing campaign to position the asset on the global stage, drawing on their vast knowledge of the agribusiness market to expertly negotiate with a large contingent of both domestic and international bidders. The team expertly handled the transaction of this incredibly large and complex asset, which ultimately sold to Australian farmers and businessmen Viv Oldfield and Donny Costello, under the banner of Crown Point Pastoral Company.
