We build and manage Vertical Farms based on
circular economy to transform food systems.
By 2050, we’ll need to feed 10 billion people using the same resources we currently have. Extensive agricultural practices and climate change have resulted in an alarming decline in biodiversity — and with dwindling supplies of arable land and clean water, food production is at risk. To ensure a sustainable future, we must rethink and reform our food systems.
Today's agriculture for almost 8 billion people:
Billions to feed
agriculture for almost 8 billion people:
40% of all ice-free land
70% of all freshwater
30% of all GHG emissions
Vertical Farming produces high-quality locally grown produce at a lower cost and with far fewer resources than traditional agriculture. Additionally, it reduces food miles & food waste by growing crops in cities, eliminating carbon emissions associated with transportation and importation. Grow local, think global!

Less miles, less waste, less pollution
Bringing agricultural production closer to home shortens the supply chain and drastically cuts food mileage and waste.

During traditional farming transit, high energy is needed for food cooling.
During long-distance transportation more than 30% of food is lost.
