KAP’s PG Bison unit revised plans to merge its Southern Cape forestry and sawmilling operations with MTO Forestry’s Cape business.
Safcol will keep an 11.32% stake in MTO Forestry until a community trust is established; excluded assets will be warehoused in a subsidiary.
PG Bison Southern Cape will instead be sold to Cape Pine Investment Holdings, which will also own 88.68% of MTO Forestry.
Cape Pine will sit under Cape Forest Products, owned 49% by PG Bison and 51% by Wild Peach Investment Holdings.
Completion is targeted for Oct. 1, 2026, subject to funding and no major fire damage to mills, plants, or timber.
