A successful pilot project with 320 cows has been built in Israel and the management have consulted on similar projects throughout Africa, Europe and the USA. <\/font><\/li>\n<li><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\">Ethiopian cows currently produce an average of 1.5 litres per day. The management team currently breeds cows in Israel that produce an average of 39 litres per day. The initial target for Ethiopia is 25 litres per day. <\/font><\/li>\n<li><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\">The company will employ and train over 300 Ethiopians in order to set an example from which Ethiopian farmers and dairy producers can learn. The company is working with the Ethiopian Government, NGOs and the Private Sector to provide free milk for all school children in Addis Abba. <\/font><\/li>\n<li><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\">Current projections indicate that the company is able to undercut competition of high quality dairy products, which are currently only available by import, by over 50%. <\/font><\/li>\n<li><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\">Projected return on investment &ndash; IRR based on EBITDA is 64% (yr 3) and 86% (yr 5) on capital invested. &nbsp;The feasibility of the financial projections has been independently confirmed by leading US Agricultural Dairy Company, Land O&#8217;Lakes. <\/font><\/li>\n<li><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\">The project requires U.S.$25.3m. The Development Bank of Ethiopia has pledged a loan of U.S.$17.7m (supported by the Ethiopian Government and underwritten by the World Bank) set against investor finance of U.S. $7.6m (ratio of 2.3:1). The management team has provided $300,000. Thus, the project requires a further U.S. $7.3m. Investor funds will be kept offshore in a European bank until use.<\/font> <\/li>\n<li><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\">Minimum investment is $100,000.<\/font><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\"><\/font><\/div>\n<div><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\">If you would like more information please send an e-mail to <\/font><a href=\"\/group\/JewishInvestor\/post?postID=yoOi2-OS6kpDaW7AQdV-lpe2OGgamzxS8I30zJLd_BTcagoOlEl2BqGinnygOUCYl77ZtXu7mi3bAaLWSJb3DGE\" target=\"_blank\"><font face=\"arial,sans-serif\" size=\"2\" color=\"#247cd4\"><span \n                data-original-string='B3cqc5XrhHern+6jlfqZzA==484eJ2RvCAJqVcmO1zA7fEEvxb1nW2tyPL\/OPTMDfZStyY='\n                class='apbct-email-encoder'\n                title='This contact has been encoded by Anti-Spam by CleanTalk.
