Management of State Owned Assets

Agro-Invest will manage the portfolio of investment properties previously managed by ADC. Any addition to or subtraction from the asset base and mode of operation will be based on investment decisions.

Investment Project Development

Agro-Invest will be responsible for developing and implementing the business and investment models that support the Ministry’s policy and technological initiatives, utilizing its own asset base (including the resources of the Agricultural Support Services and Productive Projects Ltd.)

This area is more appropriately described as project incubation, in that Agro-Invest will manage investment projects until such time as they are considered to be sustainable, and can be handed over to external investors or operators

Resource Mobilization

Recognizing that most business financing models have a debt and equity component, technical expertise will be available to design loan packages, working with such local institution as the Development Bank of Jamaica and external lending agencies. The equity portion will be mobilized through leveraging the Agro-Invests assets base to secure external capital.

Investor Identification and Facilitation

Agro-Invest will identify joint venture partners through packaging of products and actively securing equity partners, both locally and internationally. Agro-Invest will also partner with Jamaica Trade & Invest in seeking joint venture partners, and assisting them in making their capital injection, optimizing any incentives that are available to foster external investment.
