Overview of Investor

Subtropico Limited is a public investment holding company with a focus on the agricultural services sector and related value chains.

We acquire meaningful interests in companies with the potential to generate strong cash returns and growth.

As a well-established and respected investment holding company, our strategy is guided by our vision for the future of the South African market. Subtropico’s investments are highly diversified, yet we keep a strong focus on investing in future-proof industries.

Food is and always will be a fundamental need, and the strong growth of the South African agriculture market reflects this.

In the world of investment, food is widely recognised as one of the biggest areas of opportunity, alongside artificial intelligence (AI) and space.

The outlook for Africa's agricultural sector is also a positive one. This is the type of long-term sustainability that aligns with Subtropico’s investment goals.
