Niederer Kraft Frey advised GreenState AG, one of the leading Swiss vertical farming companies, on its acquisition of Yasai AG.

GreenState is a pioneer in Switzerland with regards to modular and vertical farming focusing on all aspects thereof. It provides technical hard- and software solutions transferring traditional farming know-how into “digital recipes” for the future of farming. With the combination of GreenState and Yasai, an ETH spin-off and fellow pioneer in the vertical farming landscape in Switzerland, a new market leader in the vertical farming industry will be created which will contribute to a greener, healthier planet.
