URB-E and Square Roots are teaming up to deliver fresh produce from an indoor farm in Brooklyn to retail stores across New York City. This partnership makes it easier than ever for responsibly grown greens to be shared quickly with the local community via URB-E's electric vehicles.
Thanks to a containerized system, URB-E protects the produce picked at peak freshness using insulated cold storage bags, which also helps to offer weather protection and speedy loading and unloading. The small-scale vehicles additionally help to free up space on the road and make sure that fresh produce is readily available for delivery year-round, making the most of Square Roots' smart-farm technology platform and software-controlled hydroponic growing systems.
