Customized Vertical Hydroponic System Indoor project in Sweden by Miilkiia

Customer Location: Sweden

System Used: Miilkiia Vertical Hydroponic System + LED Grow Lights

Actual Use: Commercial production / Consistent supply to supermarkets & restaurants

How the Customer Uses the System

This Swedish customer currently operates Miilkiia’s vertical hydroponic system to grow leafy greens and herbs on a daily basis.

The harvested produce is supplied directly to local supermarkets and restaurants, forming a long-term, stable commercial supply chain.

In Sweden, the winter months bring very short daylight hours, making natural light insufficient for consistent production.

Therefore, from the beginning, the customer opted for a vertical hydroponic system combined with LED grow lights to ensure uninterrupted year-round production.

Customer’s Direct Feedback

“The biggest advantage of this system is the stability of production.”

Even during the darkest winter periods, crops continue to grow and be harvested according to schedule, without any disruption to supply plans for supermarkets and restaurants.

Crop Performance (Customer Insights)

Uniform growth of leafy greens with consistent color and size

• Growth across all vertical layers is even, making harvesting easier

• Predictable growth cycles allow for accurate order planning

• Stable crop quality ensures easy acceptance by supermarkets and restaurants

“Consistency is crucial for us. It reduces grading and losses, and makes long-term partnerships with our clients much easier.”

About the LED Grow Lights (Customer Perspective)

The customer emphasized that LED grow lights are an essential part of the system:

• Fully relied upon for winter production

• Stable light intensity ensures even crop growth

• Energy consumption is within acceptable limits for long-term use

• Works seamlessly with the hydroponic system without complicating daily management

This combination allows them to maintain year-round production even at high latitudes like Sweden.

Daily Management Experience

From practical use, the system offers:

• Clear structure and simple operation logic

• Minimal labor required for daily management

• Efficient nutrient solution circulation and water use

• Reliable operation with very few unexpected shutdowns

“Compared to traditional growing methods, this system makes management much easier.”

Role of the System in Customer Operations

Today, the vertical hydroponic system has become the customer’s:

• Main source of production for stable supermarket supply

• Standard system for providing fresh leafy greens to restaurants

• Template for future expansion and replication

The customer also mentioned that when scaling up, they plan to continue using the same system structure.

Customer Summary

“This is not a showcase system — it’s a system that generates output for us every single day.”
