The confidentiality of our clients is paramount. And so whilst we are incredibly proud of the clients we work with and the transactions with which we have been involved, the fact is we never reflect upon these publicly.
There are a few items that make the media for various reasons, all largely outside of our control, and so referring to our "Industry" and "In The News" areas of the site will provide a small insight.
Suffice to say, they include agricultural families, some of Australia's wealthiest individuals, large corporates, and institutional investors, both domestic and international.
Whichever the case, we will always work closely with all of our clients to maintain deep relationships, relationships whereby we are typically considered a partner. Our intention is to understand the key foundations of our clients thinking, their operations, their strategy, and ultimately their objectives. We then strive to assist our clients in seeing these objectives achieved.
AGRIFY also maintains a sister company, Australian Standard Agriculture (or as we call it "ASA"). ASA was established in early 2016 following numerous requests from clients for additional project & operational support. More info on ASA can be found at.... aus-standard.com.au
There have been numerous approaches and several offers over the years to sell part or all of both of these companies. These include the Shanghai Stock Exchange listed Shanghai Shimao Limited (SSE:600823) who actually announced the acquisition of a 60% stake in the ASA business during 2017 (Shanghai Shimao announce acquisition of 60% stake in ASA). However, that offer was ultimately rejected by the Agrify founder.
We can proudly say Agrify and ASA each remain private, Australian family owned operations to this day.
