Chairman Steve Magami said capital will allow company to pursue strategic opportunities on a global scale
Agrovision has announced the successful completion of a US$210m syndicated financing to fund the next phases of its ambitious global growth plan.
The arrangement comes with an option to upsize the facility by an additional US$190m for a total size of US$400m.
