Talia Farms, one of Australia’s largest table grape operations, has been brought back to market following the appointment of McGrathNicol as administrators.

This week, Colliers launched a renewed sale campaign expected to attract strong domestic and international interest ahead of a July deadline.

The Riverland asset, located near Lyrup in South Australia, spans about 961ha, including roughly 200ha of established table grape plantings, a recently developed packing and cold storage facility, and a substantial adjoining greenfield development site.

Agents say the property presents a rare institutional‑grade horticulture offering at a critical stage in its production lifecycle, with vines approaching maturity and significant capital already deployed across the operation.

Colliers national director Jesse Manuel said the administration process was expected to sharpen buyer focus on the underlying strength of the asset without the typical development risk.

“Opportunities of this scale and sophistication are seldom presented, particularly where an incoming purchaser can step directly into a near‑mature production profile,” he said.

Fellow national director Tim Altschwager said the vertically integrated nature of the business, from vineyard through to packing, cooling and export readiness, was a key differentiator in an increasingly demanding global supply chain.

He added that the adjoining “Pondi” site, with approvals for further horticultural development, provided significant scope for expansion or diversification.

Executive Will Sumner said strong export demand for premium table grapes, particularly across Asia‑Pacific markets, continued to underpin the sector, with Talia Farms well positioned through its proprietary varieties and advanced infrastructure.

The asset includes technology enabling rapid pre‑cooling and same‑day pick, pack and dispatch, designed to preserve quality through the export cold chain and support premium market positioning.

Talia Farms is being offered via a Best Offers campaign closing 16 July 2026, with agents expecting a broad pool of buyers given the scarcity of large‑scale, fully integrated horticultural assets.
