Filipino ports and casino billionaire Enrique Razon, whose company won an multi-billion-rand bid to revive sub-Saharan Africa’s biggest container port, has bought a development that includes one of South Africa’s top 10-ranked golf courses.
Entities associated with Razon are buying Pearl Valley—a Jack Nicklaus signature golf course—and the hotel on the property in the Cape Winelands from a company controlled by shareholders that include Ryk Neethling, a South African businessman and Olympic gold medalist in swimming.
The nation’s anti-trust authority approved the purchase, according to a March 20 government notice.
Razon chairs International Container Terminal Services Inc., which in 2023 won a bid to develop South Africa’s port of Durban and operate it for 25 years.
A local court temporarily blocked the deal last year after an A.P. Moller-Maersk A/S unit challenged the award.
ICTSI operates more than 30 port terminals in 20 countries.
Razon—who chairs and is president of Pilipinas Golf Tournaments Inc. and is a major supporter of the sport in his home country—has an estimated net worth of $9.1 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
Razon also founded and runs Bloomberry Resorts Corp, the Philippines’ biggest casino operator.
