ABOUT RUSSELLSTONE GROUP

About RussellStone Group

17 YEARS     26 COMPANIES     1000+ EMPLOYEES     6 COUNTRIES

Every person, or group of people united by a common purpose, is driven by passion.  At the RussellStone Group, that passion is building world-class companies. We do this by investing in and managing assets through the agri-business value chain, from seed to shelf. Their success enhances our legacy as a formidable investment group.

RussellStone Group is a privately owned investment house that deals in hard and soft commodities. Our group has grown rapidly over the past 17 years and now extends to interests in Australia, Argentina and the United States of America. We look enthusiastically at our future prospects as we continue to invest and diversify in all areas of the agricultural value chain. The two AAA-rated investors we have on board attest to our stable and reputable track record as an investment partner.

Central to our vision is a commitment to uplifting all our people and their communities by encouraging them to make career choices based on passion and commitment.

WHO WE ARE
God doesn’t necessarily give us the partner we want but rather the partner we need.

Leaders need to make sacrifices the biggest of them all the risk to be wrong.
Vito Rugani
You made a mistake, now go on and fix it.
Cor van Zyl
I’m such a selfish capitalist that I give you what you want so that I can get what I want! It’s about the freedom to choose.

Harvesting hope, feeding dreams: Purpose-driven investing.

Priority is given to investments where we can play an active role in driving value.

Our services surpass those of a private equity partner. We bring skills, experience and solid commercial networks to the fore, enabling our investments to thrive, rather than merely survive. We believe in partnerships and prefer to co-invest. All partnerships are structured to create win-win situations for all stakeholders. We actively manage assets under our portfolio. This gives us the edge in developing highly competitive agri-businesses.

Strong genetics are at the core.

We capture upstream margins starting with companies in genetics and primary farming, the seeds from which all other agriculture follows.

Primary Agriculture

Our aim is to capture margins in every link of the agricultural value chain – starting with companies in genetics and primary farming, the seeds from which all other agriculture follows. We provide them with capital and expertise, and then manage them as part of our investment portfolio.

COMPANIES

When your roots are deep, there is no need to fear the wind.

Drawing on our years of experience and expertise, we’ve established companies able to foresee – and mitigate – the risks involved with volatile commodity markets.

Risk Management

RussellStone Group is far more than just a company trading in commodities. Drawing on our years of experience and expertise, we’ve established companies able to foresee – and mitigate – the risks involved with volatile commodity markets.

COMPANIES

From seeds to shoots to harvest.

With a number of agro-processing and consumer goods manufacturers under our portfolio, RussellStone Group is aiming to become market-leading distributors of world-class products.

Agro-Processing & logistics

With a number of agro-processing and consumer goods manufacturers under our portfolio, RussellStone Group has positioned itself as an established player in value-added agro-production. From this solid position, we’re able to capture both midstream and downstream margins, as we progress towards our next aim: becoming market-leading distributors of world-class products.

COMPANIES

The shelf is closest to the consumer.

Capturing margins along all paths of the agricultural value chain involves being integrated with consumers which, as a group, RussellStone is expanding into.

Retail

The most recent direction RussellStone Group has aimed its investment vehicles is into retail and direct interaction with consumers. This helps us to remain relevant and to send our roots deeper into market spaces.

COMPANIES

Progress is impossible without change.

One of our ambitions is to transform South Africa and the rest of Africa into world class competitors.
