Affinor Growers Rescues Vancouver Rooftop Garden

Affinor Growers (CSE:AFI)(FRANKFURT:1AF)(OTCQB:RSSFF) ("Affinor" or the
"Corporation) has signed a LOI to acquire all the assets of 0993341 "BC" Ltd
related to the operation of the Vancouver rooftop growing facility, located at
523/535 Richards Street, subject to due diligence. The IP from this acquisition
is very important to Affinor Growers and will be useful in future development
and production aspects.


North America's first 'vertical crop' urban farming system closed operations and
filed for bankruptcy after Alterrus Systems and Local Garden Vancouver failed to
match their running costs. The vertical farm opened in November 2012 in downtown
Vancouver atop a parkade at 535 Richards Street. According to Vancouver news
sources, the 5,700 square foot facility experienced a significant mechanical
failure in late December 2013, which impaired their ability to safely and
effectively operate. 


This acquisition will allow Affinor Growers to retrofit the facility and start
growing strawberries immediately using the recently acquired Vertical Designs
Ltd. technology. Affinor Growers will now be able to fast track operations and
demonstrate viability to the market and add another profitable revenue stream. 


This is also a great opportunity for the City of Vancouver to continue their
vision of growing fresh urban food and replacing much of the imported produce
that comes from 1,500 to 2,000 kilometers away. The Vancouver Food Strategy has
a plan to create a just and sustainable food system for the city. It builds on
years of food systems initiatives and grassroots community development,
considering all aspects of the food system, from seed to table to compost heap
and back again. Affinor Growers is excited to participate in Vancouver's goal to
become the "greenest" city by 2020. 


Under the terms, Affinor Growers will pay a minimum of $250,000 in cash and the
balance to $1.4 million in stock.
