Understanding our business model, material risks, strategy and consequently the sector in which we operate, helps potential investors make informed decisions
We recognise that there are several material risks that could impact our success, including political and economic risks, credit, liquidity, and market risks, commodity price risk, market size and market share risk, weather and climate risk, theft and fraud risk, urbanisation, scarcity, and retention of skills risk, transition and customer risk, information technology - systems and cyber risk, unique competitor risk, environmental and health and safety risk, diversification and agricultural industry risk, and regulation and compliance risk.
These risks can impact our financial performance, operations and reputation. We are committed to proactively managing these risks and taking appropriate measures to mitigate the impact thereof on our business.
As an agribusiness, Senwes operates across multiple segments of the agricultural value chain, focusing on serving agri-producers and food processors with a comprehensive suite of services to support their operations. The company's vertically integrated business model and geographically distributed footprint allows us to capture value through diversified revenue streams, reducing our dependence on any single market or product.
At its core, Senwes is positioned between the farm gate and the mill door where we focus on (1) enabling producers through the provision of financial and other support services, input products, and the procurement, storage and sale of grains and oilseeds, to maximise their yields and profitability; and (2) providing food processors with solutions related to their procurement needs.
Senwes' strategic philosophy is centred around a focused and selective approach to strategy, avoiding extensive diversification and instead diversifying through commodity, geography, client base and brands. The company believes that saying "no" to opportunities that do not align with its strategic goals is just as important as saying "yes" to those that do.
Our strategic goal is to become an integrated agri-business and a significant player in the food value chain by pursuing growth and diversification through consolidation and integration within the agricultural and food value chain. We aim to create sustainable value for all our stakeholders and become a preferred investment partner, employer, supplier and distribution channel, as well as a good corporate citizen
