Revol Greens

Revol Greens is a Minnesota-based greenhouse farming company founded in 2016 that produces premium butterhead lettuce, spring mix, and salad blends in large-scale, climate-controlled greenhouse facilities. The company built a national footprint spanning Minnesota, Texas, Georgia, and California with backing from private equity firm FoodVentures LLC.\n\nIn 2025, Revol Greens shuttered its Tehachapi, California facility — issuing a WARN notice to 42 employees — as part of a strategic restructuring to focus resources on more profitable locations. Under FoodVentures' operational overhaul, the Texas facility achieved significant yield improvements and labor cost reductions. The company's remaining three facilities continue operating, targeting regional grocery distribution.\n\nRevol Greens represents the broader story of CEA rationalization occurring across the industry following the collapse of heavily funded vertical farming companies. By retrenching to core profitable operations rather than pursuing growth at all costs, Revol Greens is positioning itself as a leaner, more resilient greenhouse operator focused on demonstrating unit economics before re-expanding.
