Published May 16, 2023
In April, CLA Meridian Capital participated in the 2023 Global Agribusiness Investor Conference held in New York, which set a new attendance record this year. The conference drew investors from all over the world who are involved in various aspects of the Agribusiness supply chain and provided a platform for them to discuss the latest trends related to commodities, value-added processing, packing, and distribution of those products.
Notable themes included:
- There is more committed capital from institutional investors to the Agribusiness vertical than ever before, both domestically and globally.
- Deal flow has been light for agribusiness investors in the YTD 2023 period, creating more competitive processes for the high-quality assets that have tested the market.
- Optimism remains for investors in the supply chain. Despite commodity price volatility, those able to differentiate on quality, service, and value-added capabilities yield attractive cash flow investments for investors.
