Foresight Group to invest in Harvest London.

Foresight Group, a sustainability-led alternative investment manager, agreed to invest in Harvest London, a UK-based controlled environment agriculture company. Financial terms were not disclosed. “This investment is a sign that the vertical farming sector in the UK is maturing. While you might not yet have tasted something grown in a vertical farm, in the future this type of produce is going to be on your menu, whether that’s from a supermarket, in prepared food, or eating out. Vertical farming is a technology that can complement British agriculture, helping us reduce our reliance on food imports, and give consumers fresher, more local ingredients. We want to make the UK a world-leader in this exciting new industry,” Chris Davies, Harvest London Founder.
