Bringing Food Production To Islands
Did you know FarmBox Foods has delivered (via our sister company, Absolute Logistics) container farms to Jamaica and Tahiti? One is a mushroom farm, the other is a Vertical Hydroponic Farm. We also just dropped one off on Grand Cayman in late July.
Islands are the perfect place to operate the farms we've designed and built because:
• 85-90 percent of food consumed on islands is imported with only a few exceptions;
• transporting food from elsewhere comes with a massive carbon footprint;
• transporting food also sends the price tag sky high, and quality and shelf life are often diminished due to long transit.
It doesn't have to be that way! Having a year-round source of nutritious food is a game-changer for many islands, and we always want to make sure that what our customers can grow is culturally relevant to the area. We want to be part of the food-sourcing solution. If you know of anyone who would like to explore getting a high-yield farm delivered to their shores, email info@farmboxfoods.com or call us at 800-946-1723.
