We dig into what makes a good franchise partner, why most farms face recurring challenges, and how Mary's mission-driven approach is shaking up the industry's status quo.
So if you ever wondered how to make real money in urban farming without sacrificing your values, check out that conversation.
This week I speak to Tristan Fisher back for round two.
He's the CEO of
Fisher Farms and he's a seasoned investor in clean energy and modular agricultural technologies.
His decades of experience building solar and wind projects along with modular biomass solutions provided him with a unique perspective on the future of vertical farming and food security.
We dove deep into the growing pains of scaling from a 3,200 square meter RD facility to one of the world's largest vertical farms, and the relentless problem solving needed to ensure reliability and efficiency at scale.
Tristan revealed how his team's lessons learned have led to a radical rethink, modular shipping container-based farms that promise lower risk, faster rollouts, and flexibility never before seen in the industry.
You'll hear about cost breakthroughs, navigating
UK energy prices and how collaboration even with competitors is reshaping the landscape for food production.
Five takeaways I want you to listen out for.
Number one, modular vertical farming is the way forward.
Tristan details how Fisher Farms has shifted towards a modular system using shipping containers.
These Lego like units can be assembled to scale quickly and flexibly in different locations.
Two, focus relentlessly on reducing costs.
Costs and increasing efficiency, which is exactly what the team at Fisher Farms have done.
Three, look into partnerships with other farms and industries.
Four, understand how scalability and flexibility reduce investment risk.
Because their modular containers are standardized, they make training, scaling, and market responsiveness far easier.
And five, build a strong, innovative workplace culture.
