BioTherm, the leader of cultivation climate technologies, has established BioTherm LATAM in Brazil, a move expected to bolster the regions’ demand for efficient cultivation technologies in greenhouse and indoor growing environments.

The new initiative comes at a time when the region’s greenhouse and indoor growing industries are experiencing remarkable growth.

BioTherm President and CEO Jim Rearden shared the news: “We have done many projects in South and Central America and have determined that it was time for a strategic presence there. We are thrilled to announce our LATAM expansion, beginning with the beautiful and diverse country of Brazil. It’s the next step as we continue to focus on strengthening our global presence and offer our cultivation climate technologies to growers around the world.”

Plinio Bocchino and Sime Larrat have joined BioTherm and are heading up the LATAM market. They will be focused on spearheading the company’s growth in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, and Central American markets by building strategic relationships with leading horticulture companies there.

“Now BioTherm is closer than ever to Latin American producers and resellers, providing the most efficient greenhouse climate technologies. We are happy and proud to be part of this very important moment!” says elated Bocchino.
