The food factory of plants is located in the leaves, as they contain chloroplast and also the process of photosynthesis takes place in leaves. A green in plants called chlorophyll traps the energy from the Sun needed to make food.
Chlorophyll is mostly found in leaves, inside plastids, which are inside the leaf cells. The leaf can be thought of as a food factory.
