There's no shortage in players in this space: Alterrus (built Vancouver's vertical farm, filed bankruptcy), infarm (Germany), aerofarms (US), growup (UK).
There are lots of issues to settle with vertical farming. One is organic labelling, which is N/A for detached soil in most (all?) countries. They can't compete in the non-organic market.
There's currently nothing "sustainable" or "ecologic" about these indoor farms. They are used to grow leisure low-calorie high price ingredients for hipsters.
