"The food system is at a tipping point. Changing consumer food preferences and eating behaviors are fueling the shift from a commodity-driven supply chain focused on scale to a personalized and value-added food and ag ecosystem.

Whether or not EY had Bowery Farming in mind when it produced that paragraph, the description fits. Bowery Farming is the largest vertical farming company in the United States, an emerging industry that is disrupting the food system to meet changing consumer food preferences, driven by freshness and sustainability. To enable this new approach to farming, Bowery Farming is applying automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) technology. |
