Leamington, Ontario Greenhouse Opportunity
The surrounding area is one of the best locations for greenhouse growing in Canada and notably possesses more built greenhouse acreage than all of the United States’ industry combined
A brand new 1.3 million sq. ft. state-of-the-art greenhouse is available in Leamington, Ontario. Leamington, well-known as North America’s greenhouse capital, is well connected to major regional population centres in Southern Ontario, Quebec, and northeastern United States. The surrounding area is one of the best locations for greenhouse growing in Canada and notably possesses more built greenhouse acreage than all of the United States’ industry combined.
The glass greenhouse facility, which was completed in 2020 for the purposes of cannabis cultivation, possesses a 24’ clear ceiling height and growing systems which could support both cannabis or general agriculture purposes. The turnkey facility contains a fully automated Priva control system along with full climate control and nutrient delivery systems.
BMO Capital Markets has been engaged to solicit interest in, and opportunities for, a sale of, or investment in, the existing cannabis business and/or the sale of all, or substantially all of the assets owned by the business, including the greenhouse property, with the objective of maximizing value.
The current licensed operations contain 135,000 square feet of licensed nursery infrastructure and cultivation areas with a maximum capacity of ~36,000 plants per room. Low-cost production infrastructure is in place with significant potential operating leverage as the facility scales. The facility was developed using a transformative approach to production, integrating a high degree of automation, lean manufacturing processes, and commercial agricultural best practices.
On September 15, 2020, PharmHouse Inc. (“PharmHouse”) was granted protection pursuant to an order (as amended and restated, the “Initial Order”) issued under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (the “Court”). Pursuant to the Initial Order, Ernst & Young Inc. was appointed as a monitor of PharmHouse (in such capacity, the “Monitor”).

The SISP is intended to solicit interest in, and opportunities for, a sale of, or investment in, all or part of the assets and/or the business of PharmHouse (the “Opportunity”). The Opportunity may include one or more of a sale of all, substantially all or one or more components of PharmHouse’s property and business as a going concern or otherwise or a potential restructuring, recapitalization or other forms of reorganization of the business and affairs of PharmHouse as a going concern.
The SISP is a two-phased process with the Phase 1 bid deadline set for November 30, 2020.

The farm and its brand has been successful for over 4 years, the owner is moving on and has taken a managerial position with a large Indoor Vertical Farming company
This is an Indoor Urban Vertical Hydroponic Farm that was built and engineered in 2015
The farm and its brand has been successful for over 4 years, the owner is moving on and has taken a managerial position with a large Indoor Vertical Farming company.
This is an extremely functional hydroponic vertical farm. 1800 Sq ft with 18 foot ceilings.
This facility is able to produce 8 acres worth of food in just 4% of 1 acre (That’s 200x).
The present owner has grown 70+ varieties of microgreens, countless greens, herbs, and edible flowers, and small vining fruits.
The facility was built in collaboration with the DuPage County Public Health Department, and has been certified by the USDA and Third Party Certifiers like Primus, etc.
Everything in the space is food grade, and the facilities walls were built with the finest grade vapor/ particulate barriers inside the walls.
The lights are 60% fluorescent and 40% LED.
You will have access to all lights, but I would encourage you to invest in more LEDS.
This is a turn key facility ready to operate efficiently and at full capacity.
Greens / Herbs / Edible Flowers
33 shelves - 8’x3.5’

1 - 500 gal for greens/herbs/edible flowers system
2 - 200 gal for vining fruits - grow / fruit cycles
1 - 200 gal for cleaning
The system is plumbed so that there are 5 water lines (one for each reservoir) that run parallel, and the cleaning water (generally bleach, etc) can be run through the system while the rest of the shelves are still running their proper water solutions.
For each reservoir there is a powerful pump that goes to the system, but also a seperate pump with separate water lines that go through a filter, then a water chiller, then through a dosing system, then back in the reservoir. So the water is constantly being purified and regulated for the system.
There are also Air pumps and lines for each reservoir.
*The current dosing systems are slowly but surely breaking down - I would strongly recommend purchasing new dosing systems for each reservoir you plan on operating.
