BrightFarms Secures $212M to Revolutionize Local, Sustainable Produce Nationwide

BrightFarms is proud to announce that it has successfully secured $212,000,000 in funding—a pivotal investment that underlines the growing interest in sustainable, local food production nationwide. This significant capital infusion accelerates BrightFarms’ mission to revolutionize the food supply chain by eliminating the conventional barriers of time, distance, and excessive cost. With a proven track record of financing, building, and operating state-of-the-art local greenhouse farms, BrightFarms is uniquely positioned to partner with supermarkets, cities, capital sources, and vendors to bring fresh, pesticide-free produce closer to the consumer. The company’s innovative approach not only makes nutritious, locally grown food more accessible, but also creates healthier communities by employing local, community farmers who share in the benefits of sustainable agricultural practices. The fresh injection of funding will drive the expansion of BrightFarms’ scalable model, enabling the development of additional greenhouse facilities that use far less energy, land, and water compared to traditional long-distance, centralized field agriculture. As more consumers demand transparency and sustainability in their food systems, BrightFarms is ready to meet that demand by incorporating cutting-edge technology and efficient resource management into every element of its operations. The recent recognition from Fast Company as “One of the World’s 50 Most Innovative Companies” and among the “Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Food” further validates the company’s groundbreaking efforts.
