Frequently asked questions
Is Rocana-Semillero Advisors US a single family office or an asset manager?
It operates as a hybrid structure: registered as a US-based asset management entity in Florida, but anchored by principal capital originating from the Colombian family enterprise Grupo Semillero. The firm also manages capital for other Latin American and European family offices, which distinguishes it from a pure single-family office. Public registration records confirm its Miami corporate presence, though the precise allocation split between principal and external capital is not disclosed.
What asset classes does the firm actually invest in?
The portfolio concentrates on three hard-asset categories: agricultural land (row crops and permanent crops like citrus and coffee), energy-transition infrastructure tied to agricultural operations (biomass, distributed solar), and value-add real estate supporting agricultural supply chains (cold storage, logistics facilities in US secondary markets). The firm does not appear to pursue venture, growth equity, or financial instruments unrelated to its real-asset operating thesis.
Does the firm make direct acquisitions or invest through funds?
Rocana-Semillero primarily acquires assets directly or through joint ventures with regional operating partners, retaining operational control through affiliated management companies. It also makes select fund commitments when a general partner brings technical competencies that complement the internal operating team, but the firm's structural preference is direct ownership and active management over land and infrastructure.
Where does the firm invest geographically?
The geographic focus spans three core zones: the US Sun Belt for real estate and logistics tied to agricultural supply chains, Colombia's highland agricultural corridor for land transformation, and specific Brazilian states with secure water basins for permanent-crop expansion. The Miami headquarters serves as the cross-border capital and structuring hub rather than the operational center of gravity.
How does the firm source its deals?
Sourcing relies on deep in-country relationships maintained by the operating affiliates, not a traditional intermediary-driven origination model. The principals' lineage within Colombian agribusiness provides proprietary access to farmland and water-rights opportunities that rarely reach auction. In the US, sourcing is more conventional but filtered through supply-chain relationships with existing tenants and logistics partners.
