Red Sun Farms, a vertically integrated high-tech greenhouse grower with locations in Canada, the United States and Mexico, responded to customer demand for locally grown produce with unprecedented levels of investment in all three countries. Red Sun Farms continues to grow year over year, but the investments made in 2020 are outpacing the growth of previous years.

This spring, Red Sun Farms began construction on its first phase (27 acres) of a three-phase project totaling 63.8 acres in Kingsville, ON. A second investment for Red Sun Farms in Ontario is under way with an additional 18 acres of high-tech greenhouse farming, which will drastically expand Red Sun Farms' overall portfolio and bring the total acreage for this location to 42 acres.  Jim DiMenna, president of Red Sun Farms, said, "This investment into the Ontario area, will allow Red Sun Farms to better serve our consumers in both Canada & the USA."

Great things are also happening in Mexico for Red Sun Farms as it is in construction to complete a 25-acre expansion this winter and 50 acres next spring to the existing high-tech greenhouse that will cultivate tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers. “The team is very excited to have these initial 25 acres ready for winter 2020, followed by an additional 50 acres in spring 2021,” said Carlos Visconti, CEO of Red Sun Farms Canada & USA.  "This additional acreage will reaffirm Red Sun Farms as the largest vertically integrated high-tech greenhouse in North America."

RSF continues to be an industry leader by consistently breaking new barriers with its initiatives in sustainable growth. By expanding its distribution center in Dublin, VA, it continues to reduce its carbon footprint and better serve customers.
