Stahmann Farms Enterprises is an Australian company focused on farming, processing, and marketing of pecans and the high-end macadamia nut. Owning pecan farms, but depending for macadamia exclusively on supply from farmers, it is facing challenges in sourcing nuts and keeping its business profitable to reach the low target of becoming one of the top five macadamia processing businesses in the world. The business is dependent on the vagaries of nature and profits fluctuate wildly. Competition exists in the form of large processors as well as new entrants. There are a number of paths open before the company and the MD needs to present a strategy to the board.
