Several of our customers are Leamington tomato processors. I think part of it has to do with where the processing infrastructure is located. I doubt there is 1M+ square feet of tomato grading, sorting, processing and canning equipment other places in North Eastern North America. The whole downstream industry is built around Leamington and area (northern Michigan/southern Ontario). I would argue that building hydroponics near all the infrastructure makes sense then rebuilding the infrastructure somewhere more arid.
