Our structure is customizable depending on your needs. To give you an example, Demetra 4 which is one of our most expensive models, equipped for the cultivation of 44 m2 is currently marketed at €96.000. Shipping costs depend on the distance of your installation site from our headquarters in Cherasco (Italy).

The success of your business will depend on a number of variables such as the demand for certain products varieties in your area, the cost of electricity at your site, the distribution model you choose to adopt, and so on.

DEMETRA is a commercial-scale hydroponic vertical farm built inside a refurbished end-of-life intermodal container.
With DEMETRA you can grow lettuces, green leafy vegetables, herbs, brassicas, hemp, saffron, mushrooms, edible flowers, some root vegetables and many other crops anywhere, regardless of the outdoor climate
Aside from utilities (water and electricity), DEMETRA only requires a 7×3 m or 13×3 m area (depending on which DEMETRA you choose) which has to be sturdy enough to support its gross weight of about 4 or 6 tons. Flooring, concrete, trap rock and are all suitable options. Moreover, DEMETRA comes from an intermodal container and was therefore literally designed to travel.
Yes, it’s a possibility! The consumption of a 56m2 “Demetra 4” is 70 kw/h per day.
There are countless reasons!
Because it makes the most of the internal space, it takes up less space and does not require building permits; because it is transportable and can be placed anywhere; because its structure is completely isolated from external factors and resistant to adverse weather phenomena; because it is ready to use, plug it in and grow; because it consumes 99% less water and because you do not need to be a farmer or have a green thumb! Everyone can grow in DEMETRA.
