This latest financing round was led by Korea\u2019s leading private investment firm IMM Investment Corp. (\u201cIMM\u201d), together with existing investors and management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sky Kurtz, Founder, and Chief Executive, commenting on the announcement, said: \u201cWe are delighted to welcome IMM as the latest global institutional investor to fund our mission. This is a landmark financing for Pure Harvest for two reasons: first, IMM is one of Asia\u2019s most respected and successful alternative investors, signaling the strength of our investment case; and second, the firm has been a longstanding investor in controlled-environment agriculture (CEA) through serial investments in Farm8 and PlanTFarm, leading Korean agribusiness and vertical farming ventures. They understand the market opportunity and the merits of our solutions, and IMM will bring tremendous value supporting our expansion into Asia. Most importantly, we share the same values and vision for building a more resilient and sustainable food system for the world, tackling food security challenges, and localizing food production\u00a0<em>anywhere\u00a0<\/em>\u2013 even in the harshest climate environments. We are proud to partner with IMM and would like to welcome IMM\u2019s Partner, Hyun-Chan Cho, the former director of Infrastructure &amp; Natural Resources, Asia Pacific, at International Finance Corporation (a member of the World Bank Group) to our board of directors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today Pure Harvest operates three (3) farms in the UAE with the Company\u2019s fourth and fifth projects under development in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, respectively. The Company currently produces a variety of crops including tomatoes, leafy greens, and strawberries, and is gaining widespread recognition as the trusted fresh produce brand, recognized as the GCC\u2019s homegrown CEA champion. Upon final completion of the beforementioned in-progress projects, the Company will operate over 18 hectares of production capacity across numerous crops and will employ over 300 people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Main-Image-Sky-Kurtz-2_ssict_1024_683.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Main-Image-Sky-Kurtz-2_ssict_1024_683.webp\" alt=\"Main Image - Sky Kurtz (2)_ssict_1024_683\" class=\"wp-image-29159\" srcset=\"https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Main-Image-Sky-Kurtz-2_ssict_1024_683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Main-Image-Sky-Kurtz-2_ssict_1024_683-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Main-Image-Sky-Kurtz-2_ssict_1024_683-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commenting for IMM, Hyun-Chan Cho, Partner of IMM said: \u201cWe are impressed with Pure Harvest\u2019s journey, their compelling business case, and their ability to reliably produce in<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">one of the most challenging environments in the world. This year underlined just how vulnerable global supply chains are, and we believe Pure Harvest is one of the game-changing companies that \u2014 through pioneering CEA in harsh climates \u2014 will deliver a sustainable source of food to the MENASA region. We highly value the caliber and pedigree of the management team, the strong sense of mission, and the high-performance culture at the Company. As a leading investor in Ag-tech in Asia, we look forward to working closely to support Pure Harvest\u2019s expansion further into Asia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tariq Sanad, Chief Financial Officer at Pure Harvest commented: \u201cThis investment by IMM underscores the strength of the institutional investors\u2019 appetite for CEA investments in MENASA. We will use the proceeds to fund our existing GCC projects, drive R&amp;D initiatives, and expand our team, while at the same time seeding a beachhead in Asia. IMM now joins the ranks of existing institutional investors which include Franklin Templeton, Wafra International Investment Company, SHUAA Capital, Sancta Capital, Archer Private Investments, 2040 Fund, and many others. Early-stage angel investors and existing management also invested over USD 7 million in the round, evidencing the strength of insiders\u2019 conviction in the Company\u2019s prospects.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The funding announcement accompanies Pure Harvest\u2019s joint venture partnership with PlanTFarm, one of the world\u2019s largest and most innovative vertical farming solutions providers, whereby the partners will jointly design, build and operate indoor vertical farms, deploying PlanTFarm\u2019s cost-efficient proprietary vertical farming systems. The joint venture was motivated by IMM Investment, the largest shareholder in PlanTFarm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This first-of-its-kind smart farming technology union enables Pure Harvest Smart Farms to serve as an \u201comnibus\u201d controlled-environment solutions provider, adding new CEA growing systems to its existing portfolio (ranging from retailer-integrated in-store farms to large-scale, warehouse-style indoor vertical farms), and adds 100+ commercially proven crops, including [to confirm the list of most exciting, commercially relevant crops that are proven in PF\u2019s systems]. This gives rise to the broadest technology suite and results in fresh produce product range of any smart farming solutions provider anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mahmoud Adi, Founding Partner, Shorooq Partners said: \u201cWe are proud to have backed Pure Harvest from the beginning and are encouraged that our original investment is securing significant interest from global financial investors. Our goal is to back founders who have a strong sense of purpose and Pure Harvest is building the right solution for a world in which we will have less water and more extreme climate conditions. Pure Harvest is not just a regional champion, but a pioneer that will take its solutions to scale internationally.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Citigroup Global Markets acted as
