The SunRice Group (ASX:
SGLLV) is an ASX-listed, global FMCG business and one of Australia’s leading branded food exporters.
With roots in Australia’s food bowl, we were formed in 1950 when a group of rice growers pooled their resources in the Riverina region of New South Wales to build a single rice mill. Today, we are one of the largest rice food companies in the world, comprising multiple businesses, assets and operations across Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, the United States, the Pacific Islands and Asia. Our 35 major brands are sold in close to 50 global markets and we have vertically integrated operations in 10 countries.
Our business structure supports the interests of both our B Class shareholders or investors, who have the right to receive dividends through our Profit Businesses, and our A Class shareholders, who must be Active Growers, and who are paid for their paddy through the Rice Pool Business, and have control of the company.
While separate, the two shareholders share mutual benefits and purposes. They ultimately complement each other, strengthening the alignment between our investors and growers.
