Pipp Horticulture Acquires Greenhaus Industries

The partnership has positioned Pipp Horticulture to be the industry leader in grow room design and vertical farming solutions.

Walker, Michigan – May 21, 2018 – PRESS RELEASE

Pipp Horticulture (a division of Pipp Mobile Storage Systems, Inc.), a provider of space-saving, multi-level mobile cultivation systems, announced that it has acquired Greenhaus Industries Inc., an innovator and manufacturer of multi-level cultivation and drying systems designed for the vertical farming industry. The principals of Greenhaus, who will remain with the organization, have combined over 25 years of experience in indoor cultivation design, operations and product development. Pipp Horticulture and Greenhaus have been strategic partners since 2017 and have already completed numerous projects together across the United States and Canada.

“This union will allow us to combine Pipp’s engineering, manufacturing and installation expertise with Greenhaus’ extensive vertical cultivation and horticulture knowledge, to rapidly expand in North America and abroad,” said Craig Umans, CEO of Pipp Mobile Storage Systems Inc. “Combined, we are poised to become a leader in this emerging industry.”

Vertical farming is projected to be over a $6 billion industry by 2023. Recognizing the potential in this market, Pipp Horticulture has developed a movable, multi-layer growing system, allowing indoor agriculture operations to stack grow trays to maximize its cubic and square footprint and increase yields.

“Vertical farming is the future. One indoor acre equals four to six outdoor acres while having a higher and more consistent yield, protection from adverse weather and increased bio-security,” said Michael Williamson, founding partner of Greenhaus Industries. “With Pipp Horticulture, we are thrilled to help create more efficient and sustainable facilities for food and cannabis crops.

“We are excited that this acquisition will bring us one step closer to becoming a one-stop-shop for our customers, providing turnkey solutions for their cultivation needs,” said Craig Umans, CEO of Pipp Mobile Storage Systems Inc.

  • The Recipe for a Top-Tier Cannabis Dispensary
    Operating a highly reviewed, top-performing cannabis dispensary takes more than simply stocking product and unlocking the doors. It requires operational discipline, regulatory expertise, top-tier customer service, dynamic merchandising, and a culture of accountability and community. With the cannabis industry continuing to expand—and regulations constantly evolving—success is defined by how seamlessly a dispensary integrates compliance, product curation, staff training, and marketing into day-to-day operations.
  • Minnesota Lottery Results: June 5 Cannabis License Drawings and What’s Next
    The Minnesota Lottery for cannabis business licenses reached a pivotal milestone on June 5, as the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) conducted randomized drawings for select license types. These lotteries were open to both social equity applicants and general applicants vying for limited licenses to operate as cultivators, manufacturers, and mezzobusinesses. Additionally, a separate lottery was held exclusively for social equity applicants seeking a retail cannabis license.
  • Cannabis Compliance Isn’t Just a Department—It’s a System
    Compliance in the cannabis industry is too often approached as a box-checking exercise or relegated to a single department or, in some cases, a single person. In reality, cannabis compliance must be woven into every aspect of operations – from seed to sale – to truly protect and propel a business forward.
  • Cannabis Cultivation Turnaround: A Strategic Guide for Stakeholders
    Creating a profitable cannabis cultivation business is far more complex than simply growing plants—it’s about managing a company within one of the world’s most dynamic and tightly regulated industries. Operators often find themselves battling shrinking margins, ever-changing compliance requirements, and increasing competition, all while trying to extract maximum value from every corner of their operation.
  • Open a Cannabis Consumption Lounge in New Jersey: Getting Started Guide
    New Jersey’s adult-use law allows “cannabis consumption areas,” but only as an endorsement to existing licenses. The Cannabis Regulatory Commission (CRC) decided not to create a new license class; instead, licensed Class 5 retailers (or permitted medical dispensaries) can apply for a Consumption Area Endorsement to their facility. This means only approved dispensaries (currently still coming online in NJ) can add a 21+ onsite use room. Applications for consumption area endorsements opened in January 2025.
  • Open a Cannabis Lounge in New Mexico: Licensing & Compliance Guide
    New Mexico’s Cannabis Regulation Act (2021) explicitly authorizes On-Site Consumption Area licenses (often called “consumption lounge” permits) under the NM Cannabis Control Division (CCD). The CCD issues two types of permits: Type I (non-smoking, edibles/vapor) and Type II (smoking allowed). A consumption area license lets a venue legally serve non-infused snacks/beverages and allow consumption of cannabis products by patrons age 21+. These can be standalone lounges or add-ons to other licensees (e.g. a dispensary or restaurant that obtains a consumption license).
