Plant Partners - Metrolina Greenhouses

Description

• Metrolina Greenhouses is a family-owned, wholesale plant and services company that started business in April 1972. We are the largest single site heated greenhouse in the United States. If you are familiar with the Charlotte region you could note that our size is comparable to 4 Concord Mills Malls which could fit inside the greenhouse! In addition we have approximately 30 acres of outdoor growing space. Metrolina Greenhouses is one of the most automated greenhouses in the United States and has many internally designed machines from automatic plant transplanters to mechanical shipping belts. We employ 625 people year round, and 100 additional people in the spring and fall peaks. We ship to Big Box Retailers, Mass Merchandisers, Home Improvement Chains, Grocery Chains, and other greenhouses in the area. To do this we use our own trucks for shipping. We own 25 straight trucks and over 100 climate controlled trailers. Our product typically stays within a 400 mile radius of the greenhouse, but that puts us in most states on the East Coast, Southeast, and Mid-Atlantic. During our peak season (March-June) we ship over 100 trailer loads of product a day!We use up to 700,000 gallons of water every day. All water is recycled to our retention ponds, which hold 100,000,000 gallons of water apiece. All the air in the greenhouse is exchanged every minute during the summer months for cooling. For every 1 inch of rain that falls on the greenhouse we collect 3 million gallons of water. We use 7 tractor trailer loads of peat moss every week.
