The opportunity

A dual-purpose holding on Aore, across the channel from Luganville on Espiritu Santo, combining a freshwater plantation with a diversified farm.

The existing operation covers crop cultivation and livestock and already has visitor accommodation, with farm-to-table dining and recreational facilities alongside the agricultural activity. VFIPA presents it as a going concern with scope to expand rather than a greenfield.

Two routes are open: buy the land outright, or partner with the existing owners to develop and expand jointly, sharing resources and operating knowledge.

The sector context is favourable — agriculture contributes roughly 20-25% of Vanuatu's GDP and employs over 60% of the population, and Santo's tourism circuit is growing — but the published brief carries no financial detail.

Incentives available

Tax and duty reductions for qualifying agricultural activities, including operators importing tourism-related goods. Export support and market access assistance through VFIPA.

Risks to weigh

No financial information published. Remote from Port Vila; logistics and power outside Luganville are thin. Cyclone exposure applies.
