vGreens is relocating to the Triple Z in Essen

As part of its expansion, vGreens is moving its headquarters, as well as its research and production site, from Witten to Essen in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The new headquarters will be located in the renowned ZukunftsZentrumZollverein (Triple Z), in close proximity to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Zeche Zollverein.

The relocation to Essen represents a significant expansion of vGreens’ research capabilities and marks the achievement of the next technological level at an industrial standard. As a result, vGreens now has the opportunity to conduct even more comprehensive data collection and analysis. As part of the expansion, an impressive Crop Cell (the smallest scalable module at industrial standard) has been established, measuring approximately 3 by 5 meters and enabling year-round strawberry production.

You can find the press release on the relocation of vGreens below (German only).
