Growth fund lands Alberta new commercial vertical farm operation

Canada’s largest commercial vertical farming company, GoodLeaf Farms, is expanding its operations to Calgary thanks to a boost from the Alberta government’s Investment and Growth Fund (IGF). The fund helps well-established companies make high-impact investments that create jobs, showcasing Alberta as a location of choice for new business.

GoodLeaf operates a proprietary indoor vertical farming system that uses a suite of technologies to grow varieties of leafy greens year-round without pesticides or herbicides. The company’s new 74,000-square-foot indoor vertical farm planned for 108 Ave SE will create 70 jobs and supply major metro areas in Alberta, British Columbia and the Prairies.
