Client endorsement
We retained Farrelly & Mitchell to conduct a feasibility study for a prospective agribusiness investment project located in Sudan. The study was to be used to support a major loan application and involved a large land development, storage facilities, silos and diverse crop rotation.
Their team’s thoroughness entailed product mapping, demand, market export and supply chain assessment, institutional, organisational and management analysis, performance metrics, scenario & risk analyses to name but some of the deliverables that informed our thinking in calibrating the subsequent investment.
