Farm Fresh Pre-IPO

Farm Fresh is looking to raise US$240m in its upcoming Malaysia IPO.

Farm Fresh Berhad is a dairy group that covers the entire value chain, from farming and manufacturing to distributing its various dairy products and plant-based products. As of the latest practicable date (31 Aug 2021), the group operates five dairy farms in Malaysia, and one in Australia, aggregating to about 5,400 acres of land. The firm had a total herd size of approximately 9,000 dairy cows and bulls and a production capacity for its Malaysia and Australia facilities at 137m and 84m litres of processed milk annually.

Farm Fresh’s extensive distribution network and stockist/dealer channel has led to growing sales volume, which had in turn led to explosive revenue growth over the track period. Its founder-led management has led the brand to gain a strong foothold in the segments it operates in, and has used acquisitions to further gain a competitive edge, one example being better breeding genetics for its herd. However, its margins have fluctuated and its operations leaves it susceptible to raw mat pressure. While herd size has grown, yield has fallen, which led to the firm looking to external sources for milk.
