System types

shrimp farms we source, engineer and finance

Earthen ponds

Traditional 1–2 crops/yr; lowest CAPEX, highest biosecurity exposure.

HDPE-lined intensive ponds

Higher density with aeration, central drains, sludge management.

Biofloc & greenhouse systems

Year-round production in cooler climates, tight nitrogen management.

Indoor shrimp RAS

Full biosecurity, 15–25 t/ha equivalent yields, premium-market pricing.

What the package includes

Scope of engagement

  • Site & water assessment (salinity, temperature, discharge)
  • System selection: earthen, lined, biofloc or indoor RAS
  • Aeration, oxygenation and water treatment package
  • Hatchery / nursery integration and PL sourcing strategy
  • Biosecurity, feed and harvest logistics design
  • Bankability pack and financing referrals
Buyer outcomes

What you actually get

  • Verified quotes from Ecuadorian, Asian and European technology partners
  • Biosecurity design tied to disease pressure in your region
  • CAPEX split between build, biological ramp-up and working capital
  • Anonymous discovery — suppliers see the RFQ, never your identity

Risks we design out of the RFQ

  • · PL sourcing not aligned with the biosecurity level of the farm
  • · Aeration undersized for target stocking density
  • · Effluent strategy undefined — a common permit blocker
Expert guidance

What our engineers tell every buyer before signing

Vendor-neutral principles drawn from live shrimp farms projects. Apply these before your RFQ goes out — they change what suppliers can quote.

  1. 1
    Match biosecurity level to PL sourcing

    SPF PLs demand tight farm biosecurity to protect their value — pond and PL biosecurity must be designed as one system, not two separate procurements.

  2. 2
    Size aeration for peak stocking density, not average

    Aeration undersized at peak biomass causes cascading DO crashes. Model worst-case night-time DO, then spec paddlewheels or diffused aeration with headroom.

  3. 3
    Define effluent strategy before permitting

    Sludge, sedimentation ponds and discharge quality are increasingly regulated. A defined effluent plan turns a permit blocker into a licensing advantage.

Want these principles applied to your specific site, capacity and off-take before suppliers see anything?

Frequently asked questions

For semi-intensive earthen systems, ~10 hectares of ponds is the practical minimum. For intensive lined or indoor RAS, projects usually start around $1–2M CAPEX.

Yes. Many buyers combine grow-out with an on-site nursery or hatchery to control PL quality. We RFQ the maturation, larval rearing and live-feed systems in the same package.

We coordinate financing referrals with DFIs, aquaculture-focused funds and export credit agencies. Financing terms are provided by lenders directly — we prepare the bankability documentation.
