Miro has three divisions: venture capital, asset management and soft-commodity business services. All divisions are focused on the agricultural, forestry and clean-energy sectors and specifically primary production businesses.
Miro is focused on developing scalable agricultural, sustainable forestry and clean-energy businesses. Miro Holdings International Ltd predominantly invests into individuals, management teams or early-stage ventures with proven ability to deliver shareholder value.
In all ventures an experienced Miro project manager takes an active day-to-day role in the venture providing strategic and operational guidance as well as channeling Miro resources. All ventures are overseen and guided by a Miro partner. Miro encourages a high degree of management sweat equity.
Miro is interested in sustainable agricultural and forestry ventures in emerging markets, clean energy and other venture opportunities globally, provided each venture opportunity has the potential to be scaled to in excess of a US$100 million business value within five years.
Miro has a wide network of industry experts and experienced local partners to identify and acquire agricultural, forestry and clean-energy opportunities. Miro provides the capital and management expertise to develop these opportunities into high-value sustainable businesses.
Investment Companies:
Miro Asset Management Limited has developed companies focused on investing into sustainable agricultural, forestry and clean-energy businesses. Miro has formed these investment companies based on our extensive knowledge gained in operating such businesses in parallel with our corporate-finance and deal-making experience.
Miro’s sector focused asset managers play an active role in analysing potential investment opportunities, and upon investment, provide ongoing management guidance to the investee business to ensure maximum shareholder return. Miro predominantly partners with third-party investment-management firms in raising finance for and operating such investment companies.

Miro Asset Management Limited engages in operating sustainable agricultural, forestry and clean-energy assets on behalf of other organisations. This is particularly prevalent in operating agricultural assets in sub-Saharan Africa where operational experience is limited.

Services include:
Business planning, contracting, value processing, supply-chain management and warehousing – to drive value from the business operations; and

Miro Commodities has a wide network of physical and financial soft-commodity management and trading experts with offices in Eastern Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa, South America and Indonesia.
Miro is motivated by an ambition to channel significant amounts of capital into agricultural, forestry and clean energy businesses which address the fundamental demands of the growing world population.
Miro believes that the long-term growth of these businesses will continue to be driven by global demand for food, energy and natural resources to satisfy the increasingly high footprint and growing population.
Miro businesses produce food, timber and energy sustainably - aiming to maximize environmental and social benefit as well as financial returns. Miro’s values of integrity and respect are fundamental to all aspects of our businesses.
