SANANBIO Profiles RADIX-Based Urban Farm at Seoul Sangdo Subway Station
An August 2020 SANANBIO report linked its Korean RADIX representative with a glass-enclosed lettuce farm at Seoul’s Sangdo subway station.
In a historical customer story dated August 12, 2020, SANANBIO described a vertical farming installation inside Seoul's Sangdo subway station. The report portrays a glass-enclosed indoor growing space with multiple levels of hydroponic lettuce under artificial horticultural lighting, located where commuters could observe the production environment.
The source names Mr Kim, described as the Korean representative for SANANBIO RADIX modules, as the subway farm's operator. The story is therefore more specific than a general announcement about a South Korean distribution arrangement: it identifies a site and a person linked to an urban growing operation at the time of reporting.
A subway-based growing installation is notable because it makes the physical workflow of controlled-environment cultivation visible to people who may rarely visit farms. The model also offers an educational setting for discussions about land availability, crop turnover and local distribution in dense cities.
The available 2020 article does not establish the facility's present-day operating status, total installed RADIX quantity, cumulative produce output, or current ownership. It also does not prove that every rack or lighting fixture pictured was supplied by SANANBIO. This report documents the company-described involvement of a RADIX representative and the historical facility context; it should not be presented as a newly opened 2026 farm.
