Silver Fern Farms roadshow highlights global demand
The second event in the Silver Fern Farms ‘Pasture to Plate Roadshow’ landed in Feilding last week, headed by chair and King Country farmer, Anna Nelson, and chief executive Dan Boulton.
At least six shareholders spoke in favour of the deal; only one spoke against at its annual meeting in Dunedin today.
Shareholders welcome the extra capital that Shanghai Maling will inject into the company; it will put $261 million in return for a 50% stake in the co-op.
Shareholders are expected to back the deal.
