Greenhouse RFQ Builder: fill the checklist, export your RFQ
This page turns the greenhouse project RFQ checklist into a working form. Complete what you know about the crop, area, site, water, irrigation, fertigation, climate control, energy, automation, post-harvest, budget and timeline, leave the rest as stated assumptions, and export a structured, supplier-neutral RFQ document you can keep, circulate internally or send for human review. It is for commercial growers, operators, investors, procurement teams and public agriculture projects — not for hobby growing.
Nothing is sent automatically. The document is generated in your browser. Buyers are never connected to suppliers automatically: David and the human team review qualifying projects — generally from an expected total project value of USD 250,000 — before any appropriate supplier or financing-pathway routing.
1. Project and crop
Define what you intend to produce and for which market before any structure or equipment brand is discussed.
New greenhouse, expansion, modernization, nursery, hydroponic facility
Local, retail, export, processing, institutional
e.g. tonnes/year or kg/m²/year
Soil, substrate, hydroponic, aeroponic, vertical
2. Site and climate
Site conditions decide climate strategy, structure type and equipment sizing.
m² or hectares, plus planned expansion
Owned, leased, under negotiation; access roads
Temperature range, humidity, wind, solar radiation, altitude
3. Water, irrigation and fertigation
Water source and quality drive irrigation, fertigation and treatment design.
Well, municipal, surface, desalinated; m³/day
EC, pH, sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, iron
Drip, sub-irrigation, blocks, uniformity targets
Head station, dosing channels, EC/pH control, disinfection
4. Climate control, energy and automation
Heating, cooling, shading, ventilation and power availability must be scoped together.
Grid capacity, outages, diesel backup, solar
5. Post-harvest and logistics
Packing, cooling and logistics requirements are frequently omitted and later reprice the project.
6. Budget, timeline and open points
State a range rather than leaving budget blank, and list what still needs confirmation.
Human-reviewed routing generally starts from USD 250,000
Anything not confirmed yet — write it down rather than leaving it blank
Export your RFQ
Download the document, or copy it into your own template. Empty fields are exported as “TO BE CONFIRMED” so open points stay visible instead of disappearing.

What happens after you export the RFQ
- Initial conversation: share the exported RFQ through the request form or WhatsApp.
- Structured requirements: missing information is identified and organised with you.
- Project brief: the RFQ is prepared in a form suppliers can quote on one comparable basis.
- Human review: David and the team read qualifying projects before anything is routed.
- Appropriate routing: supplier discovery or financing-pathway preparation where justified.

Frequently asked questions
How do I prepare a commercial greenhouse RFQ?
Work through the checklist on this page: crop and target market, area and production target, growing method, site and climate, water source and quality, irrigation and fertigation, climate control, energy, automation, post-harvest, compliance, budget range and timeline. Fill in what is confirmed, record the rest as stated assumptions, then export the document and send it for human review.
What format is the exported RFQ?
The builder exports a plain-text or Markdown document generated in your browser from the answers you typed. Nothing is submitted automatically and no supplier receives it until you choose to share it.
Does completing this form contact suppliers?
No. SeedMatchGroup is not an automatic marketplace. Buyers are never connected to suppliers automatically; David and the human team review qualifying projects before any appropriate routing is considered.
What is the minimum project size for review?
Serious B2B project review, supplier routing and financing-pathway discussion generally start from an expected total project value of USD 250,000. Below that, the checklist, guides and calculators remain useful for planning.
Can SeedMatchGroup provide greenhouse financing?
No. SeedMatchGroup is not a bank, lender or financing approval system. It can help prepare financing-pathway information and project documentation; no financing, price, supplier, yield or delivery is guaranteed.
