Willkie represented Ara Partners in connection with its acquisition of a majority stake in Pacific Ag, LLC, North America's largest crop residue supply and logistics company.
Pacific Ag provides farmers with an alternative to the expense of removing crop residue after harvest by handling and upcycling excess residue into sustainable feedstocks for growing end-markets, including dairies, animal protein production and as a medium for mushroom farmers.
This investment builds on Ara Infrastructure's waste-to-value strategy and enables Pacific Ag to continue expanding its leading position in the agricultural supply chain.
Founded in 2017, Ara Partners is a global private equity and infrastructure firm focused on the energy and industrial transition.
The Willkie team was led by partners Blake H. Winburne and Tony Johnston and included associates Claudia Garnica and Jayla Simmons.
