The opportunity
Why this business works now
A fruit orchard is a long-term productive asset that can supply fresh markets, retailers, processors and export channels. The early years focus on establishment and crop care before volumes build as trees mature. The plan connects orchard development, irrigation, labour, packhouse handling and sales over five years.
Long-term asset
Well-managed trees can produce for many seasons once the orchard is established.
Several markets
Fresh produce can move through markets, retailers, processors and exporters.
Phased growth
The model reflects orchard establishment before production volumes increase.
