Bowery Farming in Bethlehem Plans to Cut More Than 100 Jobs, According to Notice

Bowery Farming, Inc., headquartered in Manhattan, has announced plans to eliminate over 100 jobs at its Bethlehem facility, effective November 1, 2023. This decision comes as part of a broader trend, with reports indicating that Bowery may be shutting down all its farms following significant financial struggles despite securing over $700 million since its inception in 2015. The Bethlehem site, which opened in May 2022 and was touted as the company’s most advanced facility, is now listed as permanently closed. This facility, located in the Bethlehem Commerce Center, was intended to supply fresh produce to a vast regional market. Meanwhile, Bowery’s former offices and several other facilities are currently available for lease, reflecting the company’s ongoing challenges in the competitive vertical farming sector.
