Ideal Business Opportunity 'Truffle Farm'
Wanting a change of life why not take this current business to the next level and make an ideal working on your farm a reality - Truffle farming!
- Meticulously developed two* hectare Truffière with potential development upside to increase the scale of the orchards.
In 2015, an impressive 370 oak trees were meticulously planted on this property. Fast forward to 2023, and the bounty yielded approximately 8 kilograms of truffles, boasting a delightful mixture of grades.
Presently, the truffles find a direct route to a renowned Sydney restaurant, showcasing the premium quality of this harvest. Alternatively, there's the option to supply to a local truffle farmer, who adeptly redistributes the coveted produce.
In the preceding year, these truffles commanded a selling price of $1.10 per gram ($1,100 per kilo). However, the vibrant culinary scene in Sydney offers lucrative prospects, with prices ranging from $1.40 to $1.60 per gram when sold directly to esteemed restaurants.
For those interested in retail ventures, the retail price hovers around $3.30 per gram, underscoring the inherent value and market demand for this exceptional truffle harvest.
