Description: VFF Village Farms International January 17, 2026
Village Farms International Inc. (NASDAQ: VFF) is a vertically integrated greenhouse producer that grows tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers and mini-cukes for North-American retail and food-service channels, while also operating diversified businesses in cannabis, renewable energy and specialty “Leli” products.
The firm reports five operating segments: (1) Produce – greenhouse horticulture sold under the Village Farms brand and through partner growers; (2) Cannabis-Canada – wholesale supply of dried flower, extracts and cannabinoid-based health-wellness products to licensed producers and provincial governments; (3) Cannabis-U.S. – emerging sales of cannabis-derived edibles and topicals to U.S. coffee-shop-type retailers; (4) Energy – generation of power from on-site solar and biogas assets; and (5) Leli – niche specialty products (e.g., premium lettuce).
Key operational metrics that analysts watch include: (i) average greenhouse yield per square foot (≈ 20 lb/ft² for tomatoes, a benchmark for efficiency); (ii) cannabis segment gross margin, which has averaged ~ 55 % in 2023, reflecting the premium pricing of Canadian-licensed wholesale contracts; and (iii) energy-segment capacity utilization, currently at ~ 85 % of its 50 MW solar-plus-biogas portfolio, providing a modest but stable ancillary cash flow.
Sector drivers shaping VFF’s outlook are the continued growth of the North-American controlled-environment agriculture market (projected CAGR ≈ 7 % through 2028), the expanding legal cannabis market in Canada (expected to reach US$ 5 bn by 2025) and the increasing demand for renewable-energy-backed food production, which can lower utility costs and improve sustainability credentials.
