Bega Group says PCA’s silos are the only ones in the South Burnett region capable of holding volumes for year-round processing supply<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

June 18, 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bega Group has confirmed it is conducting a “strategic review” of its peanut processing operations in Kingaroy.<\/p>\n

Bega bought the Peanut Company of Australia’s operations in Kingaroy – which consists of the famous silos in Haly Street, shelling, sorting and roasting plants and associated facilities – in late 2017.<\/p>\n

The review, being conducted by corporate advisory firm Kidder Williams, also covers PCA’s other operations in Gayndah and Tolga.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe strategic review is focussed on optimising Bega Group\u2019s core business, with a focus on branded assets whilst evaluating options for non-core assets,” Bega Group CEO Peter Findlay said.<\/p>\n

“There is no certainty that this initiative will lead to any particular outcome or transaction.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, a specialist food industry publication speculated last week that the “disposal” of the Kingaroy facility was the “most likely option” from the review.<\/p>\n

PCA processes about 19,000 tonnes of Australian-grown peanuts every year.<\/p>\n

Bega’s buyout of PCA in 2017 created a supply chain which linked the Australian peanut industry from farmers’ paddocks through to Bega’s peanut butter manufacturing facilities in Melbourne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
