Methodology

Camellia plc consolidates ~50,000 hectares (~124K acres) of agricultural land across 7 countries through operating subsidiaries. The 7-row breakdown reflects each subsidiary's geography and crop profile. Notable holdings: - Kakuzi (Kenya, ~50% Camellia ownership, separately AIM-listed): 22.5K acres of diversified ag — avocado, macadamia, blueberry, beef, forestry — most valuable per-acre block - Eastern Produce Kenya: 27.5K acres of mature Kericho/Nandi Hills tea - Eastern Produce Malawi: 25K acres of tea + macadamia (largest in Malawi) - Bangladesh tea: 30K acres + 14 CTC factories + 2 rubber processing plants - India tea (Goodricke 25% stake): 5K acres attributed by ownership share - South Africa + Tanzania: 9K acres of specialty (avocado, nuts, wine grapes) - UK arable + misc: 5K acres Camellia's GBP 200M agricultural-segment Net PP&E carve-out is a rough estimate. Camellia consolidates non-agriculture subsidiaries (engineering, financial services) so a strict comp filter requires segment-level book value disclosure that isn't straightforward in their public reporting. Methodology caveat: Kakuzi is itself separately listed on Nairobi (KAKZ.NR) and AIM (KAKU); Camellia owns ~50% — the 22.5K acres shown here is full-economic-area (not Camellia's 50% economic share). For a strictly-Camellia-economic comp, multiply Kakuzi acres by 0.50.
