Fresh Takes On Tech

In this podcast episode, Jill Carlson from Plenty and Brian Cook from Local Bounti share their innovative approaches to indoor vertical farming. They discuss the benefits of year-round production and the ability to grow in locations that are not typically arable. The companies are committed to sustainability, with Plenty focused on reducing waste and Local Bounti using a variety of logistics methods to get its products to market. Listeners will learn about the advantages of indoor vertical farming, how it removes the volatility of produce and encourages consistent year-round production. With a focus on sustainability, Plenty and Local Bounti are leading the way for a more accessible and affordable future for fresh produce.

• Discover how Plenty's technologically advanced farm achieves industry-leading yields of up to 350 times more per acre than traditional farms through its patented architecture
• Learn how Local Bounti's stack and flow technology provides fresher produce to regions that usually don't get to see it, making fresh produce more affordable for consumers
• Find out how indoor farming removes the volatility of produce, enabling consistent year-round production, and encouraging consumers to make the investment in fresh produce
• Learn about the advantages of growing produce in locations that are not necessarily arable, and how it allows companies to pick sites based on logistics rather than growing conditions
• Explore Plenty's commitment to physical access and affordability of their produce, employing at least 30% of employees locally and exclusively serving Compton retailers and food service providers to ensure people in the community have access to their produce
• Discover how Local Bounti uses a variety of logistics methods, including FOB pickups, deliveries to customer warehouses, and cross-stock partnerships, to get its products to market
• Learn about the sustainable practices of both companies, with Plenty focusing on sustainable transportation logistics and reducing waste, and Local Bounti using a variety of logistics methods to get its products to market.

“The main thing we notice is people really call out the texture of our product and the crunch of the product. I think there's a lot of people have experience with indoor greenhouse product and it just doesn't have that same hardiness that I expect from the field. It's really hard to replicate that crunch. This is something that's partially due to our technology and our lighting and how we grow, but it also is driven by less transit and not washing.” (Jill Carlson)

“Having these hubs in various places where we produce is going to be really important. And so when we think about innovation and distribution, we're really often thinking about how do we make the transportation logistics as sustainable as possible. So how can we be centrally located to key customers, distribution centers and their routes? We are not constrained where we have to pick land that is arable and perfect growing conditions. We can actually pick our site based on logistics, a few other factors.” (Jill Carlson)

“We just launched with another retail partner, and it's been great seeing reviews come in. But what we're hearing a lot is obviously fresh, which is great because that's what we're focusing on, right. Making sure that that eating experience is the best. This is the best salad that we've eaten. We've had that happen a couple of times. And those are always fun to read as well.” (Brian Cook)

“I would say now it's official that the world recognizes the last mile as the most important and most challenging mile to travel. So every aspect of that last mile has become really what I spend every day trying to hone our craft and understand and be as efficient, as effective as I can possibly be for my customers.” (Ted Katsiroubas)

“We have different business intelligence, some different reporting mechanisms to use, but sometimes it's just classic roll up your sleeves and get on truck, see what it's like to make a delivery, interacting with the customers, to try to make that experience as positive as possible. So it's every day you're figuring it out. (Ted Katsiroubas)

“So our mission at About Fresh is to just make sure that everybody has access to the food that they need to be at their best. We're a nonprofit that's based in Boston, deeply integrated into the healthcare ecosystem and focused on serving households that are experiencing food insecurity and diet related health issues.” (Josh Trautwein)

The way that we grow and reach more people with Fresh Connect is by connecting with more plans and providers.

In this episode dives we dive deep into the ever-evolving produce industry, uncovering the secrets to success of two leading companies and the innovative trends driving the future of fresh food. We explore the challenges of labor constraints and inflation, and how companies like Fresh Edge and Pacific Coast Fruit Company have adapted to stay ahead. We discuss the importance of customer relationships, the use of technology and data analytics, and the rise of prepared foods and value-added produce. With expert insights from industry leaders, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of the produce industry.

- How Fresh Edge and Pacific Coast Fruit Company have overcome industry changes

- Understand the shift from 80-90% art to 65% science and 35% art in the produce industry

- How data analytics, automation, and prepared foods are driving efficiency and cost-effectiveness

- Why companies are balancing employee needs with profitability

- How loyalty and consolidation have become key parts of doing business in the produce industry

“Online shopping that occurs at a grocery store where people shop online and have delivered, the grocery store still needs the product. So we still need to supply from that regard. As a matter of fact, I think our value to our grocery store customers in our retail segment has increased through online shopping because the customer who buys online from a grocery store needs to trust the quality and freshness of that product.”

“So if you can imagine if you send a tractor trailer full of produce to a grocery store that costs so much, if you send a straight truck with ten restaurant orders to a neighborhood with restaurants that's going to cost more than your full tractor trailer going on the grocery because you got all these stops, all these cases delivering up and down outside of the truck.”

“When you look back, you realize it it's just been an incredible evolution of change for the industry in general. There's been a lot of cleaning out. I would think of the industry. Folks who didn't do their business well or didn't understand how to do their business, unfortunately weren't able to bear the tide and challenges that, of course, COVID, and then the subsequent challenges have presented from suppliers to distributors to end users, everyone has faced that out.”

Live from IFPA’s Global Show: Technology’s Critical Role in Local Produce and Controlled Environment Farming

A very special live podcast from IFPA’s 2022 Floral and Produce show! 

We are talking with Craig Hurlbert and Dave Vosburg of Local Bounti, John Purcell of Unfold, and Ali Daniali of HRVSTS.

Join us as we discuss:

• Networking at a global level at the IFPA’s Floral and Produce Show. 
• Growing customer demand for locally grown produce 
• Sustainability in the food system.
• The challenges and possibilities of controlled environment farming. 
• Using Data to inform growing operations. 

Segment 1 - Craig Hurlbert (CEO) and Dave Vosburg (Chief Innovation Officer) of Local Bounti

“Controlled environment food growing is very capital intensive, so this model will require management to have a strong understanding of running capital intensive operations.’ - Craig

Local Bounti is an indoor farming company with an aggressive growth plan over the next five years to deliver delicious, great texture, flavorful products to their customers all across the United States, locally grown. 

The demand for locally grown produce is there, the logistics and infrastructure is evolving. People want convenience, less shelf time, flavor, and low price points. Salad kits are a good example of a winning product right now. 

Local Bounti is expanding to Texas and Oregon and looking into acquiring other facilities as well. 

Segment 2 - John Purcell (Chief Strategy Officer) of Unfold

“Controlled environment [farming] is a confluence of amazing technologies; I like to describe it as Silicon Valley meets Salinas Valley.” — John 

According to John, this industry is a huge mashup of many sectors in tech, “a confluence of technologies.”

People are drawn to this work because they want to use their skills on something that matters. The reason they get attracted to this is because of the work done producing food in a way better for the planet. 

It's new in some ways, but in some ways, it's not. There's a cross fertilization of ideas and technologies from outdoor crop growing and indoor crop growing happening all the time these days.

John suggests we look at the technologies that are out there, and let's figure out how to apply them.

Segment 3 - Ali Daniali (CEO/Founder) of HRVSTS

“We've flipped the equation. For growers, it's actually a push versus pull type of equation, where the buyer is actually telling the grower what to grow” — Ali

HRVSTS grows and sells specialty produce to food service companies. Using data they can get specialty leafy greens from seed to customer in 7 weeks or less, depending on the crop.  

They use data to eliminate the inefficiencies in the system and also contract with small growers and help new farmers get online quickly.
