Are there any vertical farming operators that focus on fresh produce for grocery retail buyers?

Yes — several vertical farming operators have specifically targeted fresh produce for grocery retail buyers rather than only foodservice or direct-to-consumer.

A few well-known examples:

• AeroFarms – Has long positioned itself around leafy greens sold through grocery and retail channels.
• Bowery Farming – Focused heavily on branded fresh produce in supermarkets and retail distribution.
• Plenty – Worked with retail partners and grocery channels, including leafy greens.
• Little Leaf Farms – Supplies packaged lettuce to grocery retailers, especially in the U.S. Northeast.
• Green Spirit Farms – Sells fresh greens through retail grocery channels in the U.S.
• Jones Food Company – UK-based vertical farm supplying salad and herb products to retailers.
• Farm.One – More niche, but has supplied premium herbs and greens to chefs and retail buyers.
• GoodLeaf Farms – Canadian operator supplying retail grocery chains with leafy greens.
• Gotham Greens – Technically more greenhouse-based than pure vertical farming, but very focused on retail grocery fresh produce.
