 Timbercorp is renowned in Australia for its portfolio of high quality agricultural projects. The Group manages projects in eucalypt plantations, olive groves, grape vineyards, citrus orchards, mango orchards and avocado orchards. Timbercorp’s operations carry these projects through their life terms, from harvesting and processing through to distribution and marketing. The company’s strengths lie in its experience and management expertise in choosing premium land and securing access to established markets. These efforts aim to create wealth for investors and provide opportunities for portfolio diversification.
Established in 1987, Timbercorp has since then become an ASX/S&P 200 public listed company. Its net assets have grown to a value of $519.8 million as at 30 September 2007 and its projects have attracted approximately 18,000 investors to date. Timbercorp employs more than 180 staff directly and is responsible for a further 1,500 employees and contractors throughout regional Australia. It is currently experiencing a healthy financial outlook, having recorded a business revenue of $143 million in 2007, its second highest figure yet.
Timbercorp’s reach now spreads throughout much of Australia and beyond into the global market. Its eucalypt plantations are exported to Japan, where there is strong demand for its wood fibre. It also manages the world’s largest olive grove as well as the largest almond orchard estate in the Southern Hemisphere.
Timbercorp prides itself on its unique and fully integrated business model that seeks to maximise investor value and environmental sustainability. Its projects utilise state-of-the-art infrastructure and irrigation systems and the company makes strategic choices in its alliance partners in production, processing, logistics and marketing services.
