Working Capital in Aquaculture

Working capital lines finance the operating cycle — feed, fingerlings / PL, labour, utilities — bridging the gap between input costs and harvest revenue. Structures range from revolving lines to invoice discounting and inventory finance.

Typical CAPEX Band: USD $100K – $20M per line
