Dubai-based Badia Farms, brings high tech vertical farming to the region

The GCC’s first commercial vertical farm, Badia Farms, is plating the green shoots of innovation in the regional agri tech sector by growing produce in an environment which requires 90% less water than regular farming, thanks to hydroponic technology.
“Dubai was the obvious choice as a hub for us due to its hunger for innovation and strong ecosystem designed so entrepreneurs can thrive. We have also received amazing support from the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment and the Minister of Future Food Security”, says Badia Farms CEO, Omar Al Jundi.
