Acquisition includes approximately 90,000-acre U.S. timberland portfolio

BTG Pactual Timberland Investment Group (BTG Pactual TIG), one of the world’s largest timberland investment managers, today announced the acquisition of approximately 90,000 acres of U.S. timberland formerly managed by Jamestown, a global design-focused real estate investment and management firm. The Jamestown timberland platform will be integrated into BTG Pactual TIG’s core U.S. timberland strategy’s portfolio.

The portfolio of high-quality timberland spans five U.S. states, including approximately 50,000 acres of pine timberland in Georgia and Alabama and approximately 40,000 acres of diversified hardwood timberland across Indiana, Pennsylvania, and New York. All properties are certified under the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI).

The acquisition increases BTG Pactual TIG’s core U.S. timberland strategy’s portfolio to more than 1.7 million acres. The firm manages 3.3 million acres globally.

The transaction creates further opportunities for BTG Pactual TIG to scale positive conservation outcomes through its long-term collaboration with The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Conservation Advisor to the firm’s core U.S. timberland strategy.

As part of the transaction, BTG Pactual TIG will also welcome two experienced forestry professionals from Jamestown, who will support operational continuity and enhance local expertise across the portfolio.

“This acquisition meaningfully strengthens our U.S. footprint, adding high-quality, sustainably managed timberland with exposure to diverse, well-established timber markets. We see strong potential for long-term value creation,” said David Cassels, Head of U.S. Portfolio Management, BTG Pactual TIG.

“This transaction reflects our continued commitment to scaling a well-diversified U.S. timberland portfolio, drawing on our disciplined investment process, operational capabilities, and long-term collaboration with The Nature Conservancy to target economic returns alongside meaningful conservation outcomes,” said Gerrity Lansing, Head of BTG Pactual TIG.

"Jamestown has been a committed steward of these timberlands, and we are proud of the program and the care with which it was managed,” said Matt Bronfman, CEO of Jamestown. “Our decision to pursue a tailored fund transition, rather than a conventional sale process, reflects our commitment to thoughtful execution and alignment with our investors. We believe BTG Pactual TIG will be a strong steward of these assets going forward.”
