LettUs Grow has expanded its Global Partnership Programme with the addition of HAWE Cultivation Systems, a move that brings together two specialists in controlled-environment agriculture. The collaboration, announced at the Canadian Greenhouse Conference in Niagara Falls, Ontario, pairs LettUs Grow’s Advanced Aeroponics™ technology with HAWE’s expertise in mobile cultivation systems, aiming to improve efficiency and sustainability for commercial growers.
The partnership reflects a growing trend in agri-tech: the integration of complementary technologies to address challenges in modern horticulture. Aeroponics, a method of growing plants without soil by misting roots with nutrient-rich water, is known for its water efficiency and potential to boost yields. When combined with HAWE’s mobile systems—designed to optimize space and labor—growers may gain greater flexibility in crop management while reducing resource use.
For LettUs Grow, the alliance strengthens its ability to deploy aeroponic solutions globally. The company has long focused on making controlled-environment agriculture more accessible, and partnerships like this one help bridge gaps in technology adoption. Charlie Guy, CEO and Co-founder of LettUs Grow, highlighted the shared vision between the two companies, noting that the collaboration will enable faster scaling of aeroponic systems in diverse growing environments.
HAWE Cultivation Systems, which specializes in designing mobile benches and cultivation platforms, sees the partnership as an opportunity to enhance its offerings. Jelmer Huizing of HAWE emphasized the importance of innovation in staying competitive, particularly as growers seek more sustainable and efficient solutions. The integration of aeroponics into HAWE’s systems could appeal to producers of leafy greens and herbs, where precision and resource efficiency are critical.
The timing of the announcement is notable, coming just before LettUs Grow’s participation in the UK Agri-Tech Trade Mission to Saudi Arabia. The mission, organized by the UK Department for Business and Trade and Defra, will explore how technologies like aeroponics can support food production in water-scarce regions. Saudi Arabia’s focus on sustainable agriculture, including its investments in vertical farming and controlled-environment systems, presents a key opportunity for LettUs Grow and its partners.
This partnership underscores a broader shift in horticulture toward integrated, technology-driven solutions. As climate pressures and resource constraints intensify, collaborations between agri-tech firms could play a pivotal role in shaping the future of food production. For growers, the combination of aeroponics and mobile cultivation systems may offer a path to higher productivity with lower environmental impact—a balance that is increasingly in demand.
