Good Business
Our commercial systems are designed to operate as profitable businesses. They produce high yields of premium grade fruits and vegetables for distribution directly to urban consumers.
In the conventional greenhouse industry, energy costs (for heat and cooling) can constitute up to 40% of the production cost of vegetables and fruits. Transportation costs and payments to middle men are also incorporated into the end-point retail price.
Where an urban farming system can make use of free or cheap energy (waste heat from buildings, for example) and deliver vegetables with minimal transportation cost, then a distinct business advantage can be achieved.
A high quality, environmentally responsible product, makes very good business sense in today’s market. BrightFarm Systems feasibility studies help quantify this potential business advantage for each proposed farm. We provide accurate data to understand the outputs, overheads and comparison data with existing produce available in local markets.
