The advisory arm of HarvFresh Group Ventures
HFG Advisory guides institutional investors, development finance institutions, family offices and high-growth companies through capital deployment, transaction structuring and cross-border investment across Sub-Saharan Africa.
Who we are
HFG Advisory is the strategic investment and capital markets advisory arm of HarvFresh Group Ventures, a Harare-based diversified investment holding group with operating businesses across agro-processing, energy, mining, health technology, real estate and financial services.
Because we invest, build and operate in the same markets we advise on, our counsel is grounded in execution — not theory. We advise sovereign entities, institutional investors, DFIs and family offices on opportunities across Africa's most dynamic sectors, with capital origination relationships extending into the United States, United Kingdom and the Gulf.
“We sit on the same side of the table as our clients — because we deploy our own capital into the markets we advise on.”
HFG ADVISORY — FIRM PRINCIPLEWhat we do
From first conversation to financial close, we structure, originate and execute across the full transaction lifecycle.
Structuring equity, debt and blended-finance raises, and connecting African opportunities with institutional capital in the US, UK, Gulf and across the continent.
End-to-end M&A, joint venture and SPV structuring, including cross-border holding structures, governance design and negotiation support.
Advisory on tungsten, lithium, antimony and PGM value chains — from resource development partnerships to offtake and strategic-investor positioning.
Project finance advisory for renewable energy IPPs, battery storage and enabling infrastructure, including financial modelling and lender due diligence.
Investment teasers, feasibility and capital structuring for commercial property, residential development and institutional-grade alternative assets.
