Fish Feed Suppliers — Species, Nutrition & Sourcing
Feed is the largest recurring cost in every commercial fish farm. Choose feed suppliers on documented performance, ingredient traceability and reliability of supply — not headline price per tonne.

Selection criteria
- Documented FCR at your conditions
- Ingredient traceability (marine ingredients, novel proteins)
- ASC / BAP feed compliance
- Local mill or delivery reliability
Questions buyers should ask
- What FCR do you guarantee at my temperature and salinity?
- Where do you source marine ingredients?
- What is your delivery reliability KPI?
Common procurement mistakes
- Optimising per-kg feed price without measuring FCR
- Switching suppliers mid-cycle
- Ignoring feed-to-water quality interactions
RFQ recommendations
- Tender on €/kg fish produced, not €/kg feed
- Require ingredient declaration and audit access
