Suncrest USA Inc., a leader in sustainable hydroponic growing technology, has ramped up production in Silicon Valley to meet strong demand from local restaurants and grocers for its locally grown leafy greens. In less than two years, Suncrest has successfully progressed from an angel-backed pilot project operating in stealth mode to a 1.25-acre scaled-up greenhouse operation with dozens of marquee customers and proven technology. To date, it has signed licensees in two key markets: Seattle and the San Francisco Bay Area, and is gearing up for operations in 40 U.S. markets.
