Invest in The Future of Food Sustainability

Our vision is to revolutionize the agriculture industry in the Bahamas by creating opportunities and growth for farmers, artisans, and processors. Our mission is to provide a safe space for Bahamians to manufacture, produce, & prepare on a commercial scale for distribution and export.

  • GROW’s founders envision becoming the regional hub for food production and distribution in the Bahamas.  

  • GROW’s ability to connect farmers with producers and distributors, and its strong regional connections, are likely to result in GROW becoming the “go to” source for everything food-related in the region.  

  • It can be both a very profitable business and a source of information and training that lifts up the entire region and dramatically improves its self-sufficiency.

Raising the bar for quality food standards and export

Grow will provide a food testing lab for food products manufactured locally, giving access to local food producers to a viable export market and providing access to an FDA certifiable space.

The cruise lines have committed to spending $2M per year on Bahamian food products that are certified as safe which meet GROW standard of quality.

The lack of an FDA certified kitchen limits the growth potential of Bahamian food producers and continues to make the region dependent on imports. In addition, Bahamian growers lose significant revenue from wastage due to unsold surplus.
