AI Analysis | Feedback
- Fresh Produce: Greenhouse-grown tomatoes, bell peppers, and cucumbers supplied to North American retailers.
- Cannabis Products: A diverse portfolio of recreational cannabis products, including dried flower, pre-rolls, vapes, and edibles, primarily under the Pure Sunfarms brand.

AI Analysis | Feedback
Village Farms International (VFF) operates in multiple segments (fresh produce, cannabis, and CBD), and its sales are primarily business-to-business (B2B). The company explicitly states in its financial reports (e.g., Form 10-K) that no single customer accounts for more than 10% of its consolidated revenue. Therefore, specific individual public company names cannot be listed as "major customers" in the traditional sense of a single, dominant client.
However, VFF primarily sells to other companies and institutions through the following major categories of customers:
- Retail Grocery Chains and Club Stores: For its fresh produce (tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers), VFF sells to large retail grocery chains and club stores across North America. These types of businesses represent their primary produce customers. While VFF does not disclose specific customer names, examples of such public companies that operate in North America include:
- Walmart Inc. (NYSE: WMT)
- The Kroger Co. (NYSE: KR)
- Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ: COST)
- Loblaw Companies Limited (TSX: L)
- Foodservice Distributors: VFF's produce is also sold to large foodservice distributors that supply restaurants, institutions, and other food service operations across North America. These are typically large B2B supply companies.
- Provincial Government Cannabis Boards/Distributors: For its cannabis products (under the Pure Sunfarms brand), VFF sells directly to provincial government-run wholesalers and distributors in Canada. These entities manage cannabis distribution within their respective provinces (e.g., Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS), BC Liquor Distribution Branch (BCLDB), Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis (AGLC)). These are government agencies rather than publicly traded companies.
- Wholesale and Retail Partners (for CBD): For its CBD products (under the CBDistillery brand), VFF sells to a network of wholesalers and independent and chain retailers across the U.S. These range from small independent stores to larger retail chains.
While the CBD segment also engages in direct-to-consumer (DTC) sales to individuals via its e-commerce platform, the overall revenue structure of Village Farms International, particularly its produce and cannabis segments, is predominantly B2B.

AI Analysis | Feedback
The key risks to Village Farms International (VFF) primarily stem from the highly regulated and evolving cannabis industry, alongside operational challenges inherent in its agricultural and international expansion efforts, and recent legal scrutiny.
- Regulatory and Licensing Risks in the Cannabis Industry: The fragmented and slow-moving regulatory environment in the United States poses a significant external and strategic risk for Village Farms International. The uncertainty surrounding the federal legality of cannabis in the U.S. and the potential impact of its rescheduling could significantly affect the company's strategic moves into the U.S. THC market. For instance, the application for a medicinal marijuana license in Texas is pending review, and expanding cannabis production in Texas could potentially impact the company's NASDAQ listing compliance. Furthermore, the company's operations require various licenses, and any failure to comply with evolving regulatory requirements could lead to sanctions or the loss of these licenses.
- Market Volatility, Operational Challenges, and International Expansion Risks: Village Farms International operates in capital-intensive sectors, facing the core challenge of balancing its high-growth, yet volatile, cannabis business with the more stable, but lower-margin, produce segment. The Canadian cannabis market continues to experience persistent oversupply and pricing pressure, which limits the impact of the company's improved earnings. Additionally, the company is vulnerable to rising energy costs and inflationary effects on cultivation and transportation. Its international expansion, while strategic, introduces further operational risks related to political, economic, legal, and currency fluctuations in various jurisdictions.
- Legal and Governance Overhang: Recent events have introduced significant legal and governance risks. The company's unsuccessful bid for a conditional medical cannabis license in Texas' Phase I process has led to multiple law firms investigating potential securities law violations involving Village Farms International and certain executives. This situation, combined with previously identified material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting, could harm business operations and negatively impact the company's stock price if not effectively remediated.
AI Analysis | Feedback
- The increasing development and investment in large-scale, tech-driven vertical farming operations poses an emerging threat to traditional greenhouse produce growers like Village Farms International. These facilities, often located closer to urban markets, could offer superior consistency, reduced transportation costs, and year-round local production across an expanding range of crops, potentially undermining the market position and cost advantages of VFF's conventional greenhouse produce business.
- Potential federal legalization or de-scheduling of cannabis in the U.S. represents an emerging threat to Village Farms International's smaller U.S. cannabis/CBD ventures (Balanced Health Botanicals, Vertical Wellness). While offering overall market growth, such a change could open the market to significantly larger, well-capitalized consumer packaged goods (CPG), tobacco, and pharmaceutical companies with extensive distribution networks, marketing budgets, and research & development capabilities, which could quickly outcompete smaller, less established brands in a federally legal, interstate commerce environment.

Here are 3-5 expected drivers of future revenue growth for Village Farms International (VFF) over the next 2-3 years:
- Expansion in International Cannabis Markets: Village Farms International is experiencing substantial growth in its international cannabis operations, particularly through medical cannabis exports and expansion in the Netherlands. International medical exports surged over 750% in Q3 2025 and 758% year-over-year, with net revenue from international sales increasing by 771.9%. The company has expanded exports to several countries, including Germany, the United Kingdom, Israel, Australia, and New Zealand, and is actively pursuing new market opportunities. In the Netherlands, the Drachten facility has reached full operating capacity, and a second, larger facility in Groningen is on track to be operational in Q1 2026, which is expected to quintuple production capacity.
- Canadian Cannabis Market Growth via Higher-Margin SKUs and Capacity Expansion: The company's Canadian cannabis segment demonstrated robust performance with a 29% year-over-year growth in net sales in Q3 2025. This growth is largely attributed to a strategic shift towards higher-margin product offerings within its portfolio. Furthermore, Village Farms is undertaking a 40-metric-ton capacity expansion project, anticipated to boost Canadian production by 33% starting in Q2 2026. Plans are also in place for the conversion of the Delta 2 greenhouse to cannabis cultivation, targeting full production by the first quarter of 2027.
- Strategic Positioning for Entry into the U.S. THC Cannabis Market: Village Farms is strategically positioned to enter the U.S. THC cannabis market, leveraging its extensive Texas-based greenhouse assets, which include 2.2 million square feet of existing greenhouse capacity and 950 acres of owned, unoccupied land for future expansion. This move is contingent upon compliance with all applicable U.S. federal and state laws and stock exchange regulations, but the company views this as a significant potential growth avenue as cannabis regulations evolve.
- Innovation and Optimization in the Fresh Produce Segment: Despite the privatization of certain fresh produce assets, Village Farms retains ownership of Canadian cultivation assets, including the Delta 1, Delta 2, and Delta 3 greenhouses, and will maintain service and supply agreements for fresh produce production. The company continues to invest in innovative greenhouse technology, such as AI-powered climate control, to enhance sustainable farming practices, optimize yields, and ensure consistent, year-round production. This focus on efficiency and premium hydroponic produce is expected to drive continued revenue.
- Contribution from the Clean Energy Segment: The Clean Energy segment, operating through a partnership that converts landfill gas into renewable natural gas, is expected to continue contributing to revenue growth through royalty payments. While it currently represents a smaller portion of the overall business, management views this segment as having meaningful potential for additional upside.
