Dedicated agribusiness expertise feeds successful mergers & acquisitions
Farrelly & Mitchell MD Malachy Mitchell speaks about the importance of deep knowledge of the inner workings of food and agribusiness value chains when it comes to M&A investment. That accumulated intelligence is essential to informed decision making.
Consultancy experience dedicated to the sector allows Farrelly & Mitchell to bring their geographical understanding and cultural context knowledge to bear in assessing the rationale for investment.
Familiar terrain for Farrelly & Mitchell includes the fragmentation of the bakery sector in the Middle East or the lack of access to capital for agriculture stakeholders in Africa.
The company’s local experience and overall reach has earned trust in those markets and beyond.
Local and international perspectives
Whether buy or sell side or providing transactional advisory services, that trust extends from long-established relationships with clients and industry contacts.
We have over 300 sector experts worldwide we can call on to identify any potential red flags to investments.
We build perspective across the entire value chain when assessing any given opportunity. This is in line with our belief that a full view of the supply chain in these markets is ultimately what gives the investor the edge.
