Liquidator John Goggin of Worrells has engaged Colliers Cairns to sell the mill, plant and associated properties via expressions of interest, closing on Thursday, March 20.
Colliers said the mill was one of only 24 raw sugar milling factories in Australia and had been in operation since 1897.
“The mill provided crushing facilities to cane growing areas of Daintree, Whyanbeel, Miallo, Mossman, Mowbray, Cassowary and Julatten. The mill is no longer in operation,” Colliers said.
“The offering comprises the mill factory, installed plant, industrial sheds, office buildings, parking and laydown areas, nine residential dwellings, rural lands and substantial infrastructures for power and water supply," they said. “This is a rare opportunity to acquire a significant asset with substantial potential for redevelopment or continued industrial use.”
Features include the mill, offices, sheds and residential dwellings), 41.96ha across sight titles, infrastructure in place for refurbishment or alternate use, development and farming opportunities and direct water access with off-take licenses.
