Phatisa reached an agreement to buy Torre Industries' remaining shareholding in Kanu Equipment Limited, increasing Phatisa's stake to 85% and management's to 15%. Kanu is a heavy-equipment supplier in Africa.
Torre Industries sold its 55% stake in Kanu Equipment to the African Agriculture Fund (AAF) in a deal valued at $26.7 million. The transaction eliminates Torre's external debt and provides a significant net cash position. Kanu supplies earthmoving, forestry, agricultural and construction equipment across Africa.
