Confidential Business Plan
AgriFeed Holdings
A vertically-integrated animal nutrition and compound feed manufacturer for South Africa and the SADC region — an essential, structurally-growing input to the protein supply chain, combining modern milling, embedded raw-material procurement and a technical-services platform — structured as an investment-grade ZAR 550-million Phase 1 opportunity for senior lenders, mezzanine providers and equity investors.
Compound feed is an essential, structurally-inelastic input to the protein supply chain — demand grows with population and income — yet South African capacity is geographically concentrated in Gauteng and the Western Cape, leaving Mpumalanga, the inland regions and SADC under-served. AgriFeed captures this with a vertically-integrated mill, embedded maize-and-soya procurement and a technical-services platform — a ZAR 550-million Phase 1 raise (ZAR 750 million across Phases 1 and 2) scaling revenue from ZAR 365 million to ZAR 2,670 million and EBITDA to a 20% margin by Year 7, with Year-5 throughput of ~300,000 tons placing AgriFeed in the top 10 producers — delivering a 24.6% project IRR, a 31.2% equity IRR and a ZAR 612-million NPV at a 12% WACC.
