SINGAPORE – Gleaming structures rise over 23m above ground and leaves peek out of several racks in the world’s tallest indoor vertical farm that was unveiled here on Jan 7.
Greenphyto, located in the Jurong West industrial area, is a 14-year vision in the making.
The fully automated hydroponic farm is powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced manufacturing bots.
Shoppers who buy locally grown produce at supermarkets may be familiar with the farm’s kailan and lettuce that are sold at 95 stores, including FairPrice and Sheng Siong supermarkets, since early 2025 under the Hydrogreens brand.
A 200g pack of Greenphyto’s kailan costs $3.95. A 100g pack of leaf lettuce, marketed as Mambo Lettuce, costs $3.20. The farm also produces Japanese chye sim, baby spinach and arugula, among other greens.
The $80 million five-storey building occupies 2ha of land and can produce 2,000 tonnes of greens a year at full capacity.
With 69 patents behind innovations that help to optimise crop growth and minimise costs, the farm is powered by AI, robotics and automation technologies.
The official opening of the farm, which was attended by President Tharman Shanmugaratnam, comes at a time when the prospects of some vertical farms, here and globally, have been looking grim for a while.
