London-based controlled-environment agriculture firm Vertical Future is set to announce major deals in the next month, which will make the Middle East its largest market. The company currently grows produce for over 100 London-based restaurants and thousands of UK homes.
Vertical Future will deploy its proprietary vertical farming system across the region "within the next two months", the company’s founder and CEO Jamie Burrows, told.
To accelerate regional plans, Vertical Future has chosen to partner with GreenBridge, a Lebanon and Egypt-based agriculture company that has been active in the region for three decades.
The partnership will see Vertical Future bring agriculture technologies, market networks, plant science expertise and marketing knowledge to the region. GreenBridge will offer on-the-ground operations support and local expertise.
“In order for us to expand into a complex regional market like the Middle East, it’s important to have a viable local partner,” said Burrows.
