Vertical farming technology and infrastructure company Nature's Miracle has announced the successful manufacturing and shipment of its first two customized container farms in its proprietary "MiracleTainer" series to Growterra, an Ohio-based vertical farming company.
Nature's Miracle has developed this modularized and self-service container that incorporates LED grow lights, hydroponic systems and sensors. The modular indoor farming containers are equipped to monitor and optimize environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and nutrients levels to increase production yields over traditional farming. The official container system is available for purchase under the brand "MiracleTainer".
"Nature's Miracle's container leading farm solutions provide operating efficiency to vertical farm operators by significantly reducing the initial capital expenditure resulting in sustainable profitability to fuel the economics of the vertical farming industry in the U.S.," said Nature's Miracle Chairman and CEO James Li. "As a leader in designing and sourcing products for the controlled environment within the agriculture industry, we continue to make progress within the research and development of our MiracleTainer series of products. Additionally, we anticipate our announced acquisition of Agrify and its Agrify Insights Saas Software platform to boost functionality of our container farm system."
Nature's Miracle provides equipment and services to growers in the CEA industry, including vertical farming, in North America. Nature's Miracle offers hardware to design, build and operate various indoor growing settings, including greenhouse and indoor-growing spaces. Nature's Miracle, through its two wholly-owned subsidiaries (Visiontech Group, Inc. and Hydroman, Inc.), provides grow lights as well as other hydroponic products to hundreds of indoor growers in North America. Nature's Miracle has also developed a robust pipeline to build commercial-scale greenhouse in the U.S. and Canada to meet the growing needs of fresh and local vegetable products.
Nature's Miracle has established its first manufacturing footprint in North America with its grow-light assembly plant in Manitoba, Canada, and is expected to set up additional manufacturing/assembly facilities in North America.
Nature's Miracle previously announced its plan to acquire 100% of the shares of Agrify Corp., which provides software automation technology in the CEA market. Agrify's technology will enhance the features of the "MiracleTainer" series while providing direct access to a large customer base.
