"Jennifer Schaus" New Project Alerts - 1
I find myself working on various contracts world-wise, or with customers who have an interesting gadget or are providing a unique service. I wanted to leverage this internet blog "space" to showcase these special individuals and companies that have impacted my life and career.
Got Milk? Perhaps you do. Got Produce® is the real question. I started 2012 off with my significant other in Italy. Another reason to be happy and excited for the new year was an email invitation from my ultra smart business colleague, Deborah Walliser of Solsustech. I had worked with Deb and Solsustech over the last few years to raise money and find opportunities for grants, contracts and funding within the US Federal Government. Her 2012 email invited me to be on Solsustech's Board Of Directors and I gladly accepted.
The challenges continue - and so do we. That is why I love being involved in such an interesting company - one that is doing great things world-wide. Deb has great energy and leadership. She has used her talents in botany and background NASA hydroponics to create a system that grows more food, better and cheaper that current methods and in a format that taps large portions of the global $4 TT fresh food market.
Solsustech solves problems. It's really that simple.
The firm manufactures turn-key hydroponic green-houses to provide sustainable agricultural products to regions world-wide. It's obvious to see the applications for arid regions like Africa and the Middle East as well as areas hit by natural disasters (ie. Haiti, etc.).
These green houses, originally developed for space are now commercial application anywhere on earth, scalable to meet the needs of our growing population at a lower cost than is currently available. Solsustech's benefits are amazing!!!
1. The system grows 40x more food using only 2% of the water of traditional agricultural methods.
2. This system eliminates outdoor contaminates that traditionally plague the fresh produce market.
3. This system disrupts how food is produced AND distributed, but still leverages existing food distribution channels.
What are the 5 Biggest Challenges in Agriculture?
* Costs (Water, Energy, Nutrients, Pest control),
* Food Safety,
* Food Security,
* Runoff and discharge regulation and productivity
(yield per acre per year, etc.)
Solsustech's technology-based growing system reduces, solves, or eliminates ALL of these issues, while at the same time providing superior product quality (taste, crispness, shape, size, etc.) adjustable to meet produce buyer preferences.
FRANCHISE NEWS - GOT PRODUCE - SOLSUSTECH
After returning from an Obama Administration Sub-Sahara Africa Trade Mission, Solsustech was able to sign their first franchise in Senegal. The greenhouse franchise will be located in close proximity to major roadways outside of Dakar, and will have the option to expand production to accommodate demand up to fifty kilometer away. With this underway, Solsustech looks forward to providing additional sustainable food systems globally.
