About Hydrobuilder Holdings
Hydrobuilder Holdings (HBH) was initially formed through the acquisitions of Hydrobuilder.com, a leading online retailer of hydroponics and horticultural supplies, GreenCoast Hydroponics, the second-largest hydroponics retailer in the United States, and Los Angeles, Calif.-based Elevated Equipment Supply, full-service equipment and supplies provider for the commercial cultivation and specialty agriculture industries. More recently we have acquired Way to Grow, a Colorado-based retailer of aeroponic, hydroponic, and greenhouse products as well as Home Grown Ventures (HGV) Nutrients, a manufacturer and distributor of a proprietary blend of water-soluble nutrients used for commercial agriculture. Together the five businesses create a leading omnichannel retailer of specialty agriculture and hydroponics equipment and supplies.
