What Top Greenhouses does
Top Greenhouses Ltd. is an Israeli private company headquartered in Rishon Le Zion and a subsidiary of the Elyahu Zalman and Sons Ltd. Group, a steel pipe and profile manufacturer with over 50 years of operating history. The company designs, produces, and markets advanced controlled-environment agriculture (CEA) greenhouses and offers a portfolio of seven structure families (Top Gothic, Top Max, Top Sawtooth, Top Tropical, Top Tunnels, Top Koren, Top Nethouses) engineered for different climate conditions, together with six crop-specific solution packages covering vegetables, flowers, leafy greens, aquaculture, cannabis, and nurseries. Subsidiary manufacturing provides captive supply of structural steel, while integration extends to irrigation, fertigation, climate control, hydroponic (including NFT) systems, growing media, and computer-aided automation for high-end applications such as cannabis cultivation.
The company's commercial model is built around custom turnkey project delivery, supported by feasibility studies, design engineering, installation, and ongoing agronomic and commercial guidance through the first growing cycle. Pricing varies from approximately $10/m² for basic polyethylene structures to $1,000/m² for advanced turnkey facilities with full automation, lighting, climate, and hydroponic subsystems. Go-to-market relies primarily on direct enterprise field sales, supplemented by a channel partner in Australia (Ace Greenhouses Pty Ltd), a regional representative in India, and the Mahindra Top Greenhouses joint venture that combines Top's technology with local Indian market access.
Top Greenhouses reports a portfolio of thousands of completed projects in more than 100 countries, an ISO 9001 quality certification, and a stated 72% revenue share from returning customers, alongside a 20-year design life for its structures. Revenue and headcount figures are not publicly disclosed; the firmographic headcount of 1-10 appears inconsistent with the stated global footprint, regional offices, manufacturing subsidiary, and JV operations, and should be treated cautiously. The business serves commercial growers, agricultural investors transitioning land into greenhouse enterprises, traditional farmers moving from open-field to controlled-environment production, and licensed cannabis cultivators.
