Ep.89 - Lessons From the Top 100: Metrolina Greenhouses’ Chief Information Office on Technology, Data Analytics, and More

For the team here at Greenhouse Grower, the month of May means the Top 100 Growers. Throughout this month, we’ll be featuring conversations with members of our 2026 Top 100 Growers list, which you can learn more about in our May issue. This week, I’m joined by Adam Kelley, Chief Information Officer at Metrolina Greenhouses. Adam’s background in both biology and supply chain logistics have played a key role in helping with process improvement and data analytics at Metrolina. I talked with Adam about how Metrolina approaches technology adoption, what the company learned during a recent ERP system upgrade, and his advice on how all growers, regardless of size, can approach technology and innovation. Here’s our conversation.
