About Ceres Partners

Ceres Partners is a real estate operator. Ceres Partners operates in Chicago, Illinois, Dayton, Ohio and Evansville, Indiana-Kentucky. Its investment focus is on Agriculture.

Ceres Partners is a U.S. food-and-agriculture investment manager founded in 2007. Through its flagship Ceres Farms vehicle, the firm owns and operates over 176,000 acres across 12 states, targeting productive row-crop farmland that delivers current income and long-term appreciation. Total assets exceed $1.95 billion, supported by in-house acquisition, leasing, and asset management capabilities from its South Bend, Indiana headquarters. Beyond farmland, Ceres invests growth equity via its Food & Agriculture Opportunity strategy to back operating companies in the agri-food value chain, and it has expanded focus areas to include water resources alongside farm real assets. The firm’s main office is at 806 Howard Street, Suite 200, South Bend, IN 46617, with a published contact of (855) 242-3737; additional branches include Chicago and Hingham, MA. With a nearly two-decade track record, Ceres provides scale exposure to U.S. agriculture with low correlation to public markets.
