Camil Alimentos, Brazil’s rice-processing company, has expanded overseas with the acquisition of Rice Paraguay and a majority share in Villa Oliva Rice.
Struck through the Paraguayan company Q2PY, the deal involves shares representing 100% of Rice Paraguay and 80% of Villa Oliva Rice.
Q2PY, a company controlled by Camil’s CEO Luciano Quartiero, will enter a purchase and sale agreement with Camilatam, a subsidiary of Camil, as an extension of the transaction.
Camilatam will purchase the majority shares of Villa Oliva from Q2PY for $33m.
The completion of the transaction is contingent on customary conditions, including the transfer of certain rural properties from Villa Oliva to Q2PY.
Post-reorganisation, Rice and Q2PY will lease 18,000 ha of land and the existing irrigation system to Villa Oliva for five years, with an option to renew for another five years.
