We invest in the wildlife & farming, hospitality, real estate, private equity and consumer sectors.
Woody Cape Wildlife is a wildlife and cattle breeding business with the aim of becoming the forerunner in producing the next era of quality buffalo, sable and cattle in South Africa. Located on properties in the Eastern Cape in South Africa, the programme spans over 3800ha on 6 farms and draws on 20 years’ experience in breeding pedigree animals.
Partnering with Inverson, it is able to dedicate itself to sourcing and combining the best genetics in the country with the help of highly experienced and accomplished operators in this field.
Woody Cape Wildlife now stands at the forefront of the game industry alongside the production of premium quality beef focussing on science, innovation and down to earth animal husbandry and farm management.
