Scale for India and the World: On completion of the acquisition, the Company’s processing capacity will scale to a combined 1,13,000 MT, comprising its existing 18,000 MT in India, the 35,000 MT greenfield facility being set up at Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh, and 60,000 MT in Côte d’Ivoire. This builds scale for India and global demand alike, in line with the Company’s ambition to lead the cashew value chain.
Established Platform, Global Customers: Pacific Global, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, procures RCN, manages inventory and processes it into cashew kernels, which are sold to international customers across the US, Europe, the Middle East and China. For January–August 2026, it reported a consolidated turnover of AED 40.32 million (₹104.18 crore), with a consolidated net worth of AED 135.92 million (₹351.20 crore) as on August 31, 2026.

The all-stock structure involves no cash outflow, values the acquisition at approximately 1.0x Pacific Global’s net worth, and aligns the incoming shareholders with the Company’s long-term value creation. The transaction is subject to shareholder and other applicable approvals, and is expected to be completed within approximately 2–3 months thereafter.

The Board further approved an increase in the authorised share capital from ₹25 crore to ₹40 crore.
Commenting on the update, Mr. Aayush Jain, Promoter, Chairman & Managing Director, said:“This acquisition is a defining milestone in Pajson Agro’s journey. It takes us from a local processor to a company with a global strategic footprint, right at the origin. Côte d’Ivoire is the world’s largest producer of raw cashew nuts, and60,000 MT of processing capacitythere places us at the centre of global supply.
With combined capacity scaling to1,13,000 MT, we are building scale not just for India but for the world, and we are clearly targeting a leadership position in the cashew industry. Processing at origin and serving customers across multiple markets also gives us a clear natural hedge. The opportunities ahead are significant, and throughESOS 2026our people will share in the value they help create.”
Mr. Pulkit Jain, Promoter & Non-Executive Director, Pajson Agro India Limited, and Majority Shareholder, Pacific Global FZCO, added:“Pacific Global has established an origin-based processing operation in Côte d’Ivoire with access to international customers, and bringing it into Pajson Agro unites sourcing, processing and global sales under one listed company. As the majority shareholder of Pacific Global, I have chosen to receive the entire consideration in Pajson Agro shares, not cash. This reflects my confidence in the Company’s long-term prospects and keeps my interests aligned with those of every Pajson Agro shareholder.”
