Alternative Mohair Buyer

For anyone interested, I was given the following information about an alternative option for selling mohair.

The buyer is Australian Mohair Services (AMS), owned by John Hoornweg. John is the Vice President and Treasurer of Mohair Australia. Some details are –

• Nathan at Australian Wool Network (AWN) will accept shipments to AMS.
• AMS will pay the freight and factor that into producers payments.
• AMS receives the consignment of Mohair and classes and charges 40-50 cents per kilo classing cost and .85 cents per kilo warehouse cost.
• AMS pays producers approximately 30 days from receiving the consignment of Mohair and the prices are based on the International price at that time.
• If there is a downturn at the time, negotiations can take place and AMS can hold off selling if agreed.

A brief resumé of John Hoornweg is below and should anyone be interested, John’s contact details are shown in the pdf below.
