Booster hires direct investment specialist for continued growth strategy

Geoff Romijn has been appointed Associate Director of Booster’s Direct Investments team following over six years at Pencarrow Private Equity.

Romijn’s primary focus will be on the NZX-listed Private Land and Property Fund, including looking for further acquisition opportunities. PLPF invests in agricultural and horticultural land across New Zealand such as orchards, vineyards, and dairy farms, supplemented by other commercial real estate assets.

Last year it acquired a large-scale logistics warehouse in Canterbury as part of its diversification strategy.

Romijn’s appointment follows the appointment of former Z Energy and Macquarie executive Nicolas Williams to the new role of Head of Direct Investments last year.
