Live and work amid Modimolle’s Waterberg Mountains — turnkey rural enterprise with an award-winning abattoir, 2,000-bird/day poultry operation and a four-bedroom homestead.
Prime Investment: Multi-Award-Winning 24,5 HA Poultry Farm & Abattoir in Modimolle
A rare, highly profitable, and fully operational agricultural enterprise in the heart of the Waterberg Mountains.
Nestled in the pristine, serene environment of Modimolle (Nylstroom), Limpopo, this 24.5-hectare farm presents an exceptional turnkey opportunity for serious investors. Boasting the prestigious award for the Best Low-Throughput Abattoir in Limpopo for several consecutive years, this state-of-the-art facility is founded upon three profitable pillars: a fully equipped poultry abattoir, a red meat/game processing plant, and direct retail sales.
With bulk contracts already in place, a loyal client base, and a facility constructed to the highest ISO and Department of Agriculture hygiene management standards, investing in this enterprise is a guaranteed commercial trifecta.
🏭 Abattoir & Processing Facilities
The cornerstone of this property is the meticulously designed processing infrastructure. The facility operates with full licensing (health, waste, hygiene), an approved Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), and a comprehensive Water Use License.
Poultry Abattoir (2,000 Birds/Day Throughput): Equipped with high-quality German machinery to easily meet daily targets. The layout ensures a sterile environment with dedicated hygiene stations. It features an admin/office area, collection/delivery bays, a bleeding and de-feathering room, and a waste disposal system with integral drainage. The packaging room is paired with its own separate, fully equipped cold and freezer rooms.
Red Meat & Game Processing Plant: Features a separate entrance and delivery bay with a sanitation booth. The large processing room includes industrial-strength meat-hanging beams, stainless steel benches, granite worktops, and a dedicated biltong drying area.
