About Us
An Early Stage Agri-business
with a Strong Market
and an Experienced Team
AGR1 was established in early 2018 to explore the sustainability and business opportunities offered by using technology to grow high quality fresh produce in close proximity to the major population centers of South East Asia
AGR1's startup period has been spent refining our technology package and developing a pipeline of projects to implement our growing and marketing systems throughout South East Asia. With this foundation knowledge and planning in place AGR1 is now pushing forward through Proof of Concept to commercial production
Based on technological development and market research completed during the start up period AGR1 has been able to secure seed funding to construct a Proof of Concept/Research & Development Facility in Johor Bahru, Malaysia
