Re:Is Vertical Farming Really the Future of Agriculture? by azernik on Friday July 06, 2018 @03:12AM (#17469562)
Because there are serious costs to bringing everything in-house; you've got to get hold of the capital, you lose any economies of scale that come from addressing a larger market, etc.

With regards to transportation costs, you're assuming that a restaurant running a private vertical farm could do so on its storefront premises, which is a big assumption. Most pricey restaurants are space-limited.
