WE ARE MORE THAN FARMERS
WE ARE PRODUCERS OF HEALTH AND SUSTAINABILITY
With experience operating two farms in Brussels, Belgium and Venlo, the Netherlands, three indoor farms in development in the Netherlands, Spain and Germany, and a detailed phased expansion plan covering the coming years, Urban Health Farms aims to be the largest indoor vertical farm operator in Europe. Further down the line, we aspire to grow into other markets and regions. Today, the food industry is in need of modernisation and global adoption of indoor vertical farming will revolutionise food production and distribution.

THE WORLD IS FACING
A FOOD CRISIS
THE WORLD IS FACING
A FOOD CRISIS
By 2050, nearly 10 billion hungry people will rely on agriculture and technology to feed them. It is estimated 200,000 children are born every day, many of them into food poverty. Our current food system is already struggling, yet experts estimate we’ll have to find a way to increase food production levels by 70%. A rapidly changing climate threatens not just food supply, but also quality, access, tenuous transportation links and food security. In order to meet future food demands while overcoming the challenges in our current
system, we'll have to find innovative solutions and make immediate changes.

CHANGING FOOD PREFERENCES
70% of all vegetables are sold whole and fresh, high demand for fresh, local, long-lasting, nutritious, convenient and affordable produce
SHIFTING DEMOGRAPHICS
80% of people will live in urban areas by 2050, share of fresh produce correlates to income levels
UNRELIABLE CLIMATE
Unpredictable seasons, droughts, floods, increasing pests and diseases
INEFFICIENCIES IN TRADITIONAL AGRICULTURE
Average produce travels 2,400km to markets, losing 45% of its nutrition, increasing food waste, degrading topsoil, depleting aquifers

SOLUTION
INDOOR VERTICAL FARMING
IS AN INNOVATIVE
SOLUTION
With a potential food crisis looming, an innovative solution is needed. Fortunately, with the advanced technology we have at our fingertips, Urban Health Farms are pioneers in an industry that minimises or eliminates the current challenges of traditional farming.
Bringing fresh, safe and nutritious produce to the world will require significant investment, rapid adoption and global encouragement of innovative agricultural production methods — exactly like indoor vertical farming.

TECHNOLOGY
Our advantage over traditional farming is clear. No matter what adverse climatic or environmental conditions are happening outside, indoors it is a perfect sunny day, every day. Continual excellent yields can occur 365 days of the year, giving certainty to customers, and a year-round guaranteed supply and consistent quality to retailers. The use of proprietary technologies truly sets us apart from other vertical farming groups around the world.

OUR DISRUPTION
Through ultra-advanced quality control and proprietary technology, Urban Health Farms can confidently say our resulting produce is of an exceptional and unmatched quality. Our produce is fresher, higher in vitamins and retains more nutrients for the consumer, while using less resources and increasing yields.
A SUPERIOR PRODUCT
- No pesticides
- No heavy metal contamination
- No parasitic ovum
- No E.coli
- Low nitrate
- Low bacteria counts
More than a catchy phrase, these are impressive and attractive qualities that consumers are actively looking for. The year-round availability of premium, quality produce that is fresh, safe, healthier and longer-lasting is an exciting prospect for Europeans.

When compared to traditionally grown produce in open-field agriculture, produce from indoor vertical farms offer many advantages.
LOCAL
Indoor farms can be built anywhere, including in modular options like shipping containers and transported to neighborhoods in need.
AUTOMATED
Labour shortages will not impact harvests and can supply fresh food with minimal to no direct physical contact between workers and produce.
RELIABLE
Farms consistently produce high-yield and high-quality harvests with shorter crop cycles, regardless of external conditions.
NUTRIENT RICH
Hydroponics allows for constant optimisation of quality and yield through precise delivery of nutrients and ultimate control of environmental variables
FRESH
Our produce lasts up to twice as long, is fresher, retains more of its nutrients for the consumer and is available fresh and local year-round.
AFFORDABLE
Reduced labour costs and investment in renewable energy make produce from vertical farms accessible and affordable year round.
SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION
Indoor farms use 90-95% less water and 90% less land. A reduced supply distribution chain means minimal transportation and drastically lowers the overall environmental footprint.
NO PESTCIDES OR HERBICIDES
The absence of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides or heavy metals makes our produce pure and healthy.
CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT
Infection risks to workers and crops are significantly reduced, increasing the trust consumers have in where their food is coming from.
