A vertical farming business backed by Ocado has opened a new state-of-the-art innovation centre in Bristol.
Scunthorpe-founded Jones Food Company (JFC) said the centre would “end the need” for the UK to import soft fruits, herbs and cut flowers in the next 10 years.
The company believes it can grow soft fruits, flowers, vegetables - and even vines - on a commercially viable scale in the next few years.
