PGI Group is UK based group that invests for the long term in agribusinesses and renewable energy in the Southern African countries of Zimbabwe, Zambia and Malawi. Our companies produce:Tea, roses and macadamia nut kernels all of which can be found as regular parts of European brands.

The PGI Group strategy is to create long term value for our shareholders by investing in the Southern African region in two sectors:

• To build market leading businesses in large scale export agriculture. We strive to maintain a competitive advantage through investing in new plant varieties and production processes to deliver lower costs whilst building meaningful relationships with our major customers to improve the quality of our earnings.
• To develop hydro electric power schemes in the 1MW-15MW size range to generate electricity for supplying into the southern African national grids.
• We also work to provide both a safe and secure working environment for all our employees and to minimise the environmental impact of all our operations.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Our agricultural businesses are very long term by nature. For example tea has a productive life of 50 years if managed in a long term sustainable manner. As a result we actively manage our environment to ensure the long term health of our land and water resources. We pay particular attention to:

• Soil conservation
• Agrochemical and artificial fertilizer use
• Biodiversity and the conservation of natural forest on our estates
• Water storage and preservation of the catchment
