Agroz Partners with Harvest Today to Introduce Vertical Farming Innovation
Agroz Inc. (NASDAQ: AGRZ), a Malaysia-based fully vertically integrated agricultural technology company, has announced a strategic collaboration with U.S.-based Harvest Today, LLC, the developer of the patented Harvest Wall™ growing system. The partnership will introduce the Agroz Groz Wall, a modular vertical growing solution designed to make pesticide-free, nutrient-rich produce accessible closer to where it is consumed.
The collaboration was officially unveiled at the Future Food-AgTech Festival 2025 (FFF2025), witnessed by Datuk Seri Isham Ishak, Secretary General at the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security. Agroz is showcasing Agroz Tech and the new Agroz Groz Wall at Booth 34 from October 8 to October 12, 2025, at the Oval Concourse, New Wing, 1 Utama Shopping Centre.
Under the agreement, Agroz will integrate Harvest Today’s patented grow system as the foundation for the Agroz Groz Wall, which will be offered to commercial and institutional clients including farms, hotels, restaurants, cafes, and schools across ASEAN.
Driving Food Security and Sustainability
Malaysia and other ASEAN nations depend heavily on imported fresh produce. By localizing vertical farming, Agroz aims to strengthen regional food resilience, reduce carbon footprints, and shorten farm-to-plate distances. The Agroz Groz Wall is designed for pesticide-free, high-yield cultivation using minimal water and space, aligning with broader sustainability goals.
“This collaboration underscores our vision of bringing Agroz's freshest, nutrient-rich, clean, and pesticide-free vegetables closest to where they are consumed, in hopes of making farm-to-plate a reality through food innovation and sustainability,” said Gerard K. M. Lim, CEO of Agroz.
“We are proud to bring the Harvest Wall™ to Southeast Asia with Agroz,” said Rick Langille, CEO of Harvest Today. “Our goal is to demonstrate that vertical farming can thrive in tropical markets when you apply practical thinking and solid designs.”
A Milestone Year for Agroz
The collaboration follows the company's successful listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market on October 1, 2025, under the ticker symbol AGRZ. They became the first Southeast Asian agricultural technology company to complete an initial public offering (IPO) on the Nasdaq exchange, marking a significant milestone in the region’s AgTech industry.
Through partnerships like this one with Harvest Today, Agroz continues to advance its mission of building sustainable, high-tech agriculture systems that deliver fresh produce efficiently while supporting food security across Southeast Asia.
