FishMatch Group · Project procurement
Commercial shrimp farming projects
Start with your chosen shrimp species, production stage, site evidence and harvest program. Compare pond, nursery and indoor system options against measured water conditions, peak feed and oxygen demand, utilities and operator capability—not assumed yields or a standard price per hectare.
Managed infrastructure procurement from USD 250,000 total project value · Free to buyers · Supplier-funded

Project options and scope basis
| Project | System | Capacity basis | Procurement interfaces |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pond development | Lined or earthen ponds | Buyer-entered pond area and cohort schedule | Intake, drainage, sludge, aeration and standby power |
| Farm upgrade | Existing shrimp ponds | Measured baseline and proposed peak loads | Retrofit interfaces, feeding, monitoring and maintenance |
| Nursery integration | Nursery tanks or raceways | Buyer-entered batches and transfer size | Post-larvae handling, treatment and acclimation |
| Indoor grow-out | Shrimp RAS or biofloc | Qualified engineering basis, not a yield promise | Solids, oxygen, water chemistry, redundancy and operator skills |
Use buyer-entered assumptions and dated site evidence. No standard CAPEX, yield, survival or supplier availability is implied.
Project cost scenario
Define your project context
- New farm: establish site control, water rights, environmental review and the production basis before selecting equipment.
- Farm expansion: document current performance, bottlenecks and utility headroom; distinguish measured results from proposed targets.
- Nursery or hatchery integration: define post-larval health evidence, delivery stage, batch schedule and acclimation responsibilities.
Equipment and interfaces
- Pond geometry, lining and drain interfaces
- Intake, reservoir, treatment and effluent scope
- Aeration duty, standby power and emergency response
- Shrimp feeding, monitoring and calibrated alarms
- Nursery transfer, harvest handling, chilling and dispatch
Checks before an RFQ
- Confirm shrimp species, life stage and seed health documentation with qualified specialists.
- Provide seasonal water analysis, salinity, temperature and discharge constraints.
- Separate annual harvest targets from peak feed load, standing biomass and oxygen demand.
- Record local permissions, civil works, electricity tariff and service requirements.
- Agree test conditions, exclusions, training, spares and commissioning responsibilities.
How procurement works
- 01
Define species, site, capacity, scope and unknowns in one brief.
- 02
FishMatch staff check completeness and qualification before any sourcing.
- 03
Staff coordinate provider questions and comparable scope privately; identities and contacts stay confidential.
- 04
Review exclusions, evidence and next actions through FishMatch; independent contractors retain responsibility for their work.
Planning tools and related scope
Project, seafood supply or RFQ service: which one do you need?
Commercial aquaculture project
Building, expanding or equipping a fish farm, shrimp farm, hatchery, RAS or processing line. You describe species, capacity, system, site and water.
Prepare your private briefSeafood sourcing
Buying farmed fish or shrimp as a product, not equipment. A separate brief asks for species, specification, volume, destination and cold chain.
Open the seafood sourcing briefHuman-reviewed RFQ service
There is no instant or automated supplier match. Manufacturer research happens after the project requirement is clear and is reviewed by the FishMatch team before any supplier is approached. No quote, price or financing is guaranteed.
How the review works
Buyers pay nothing. Managed requests start at USD 250,000: total project value for farms and equipment, or total annual or seasonal program value for seafood. FishMatch Group owns no farms or stock and guarantees no availability, price, quality, approval or delivery. Hobby, aquarium, backyard and ornamental systems are outside this service; the free calculators stay open to everyone. Free calculators
Buyer questions
What does a shrimp farming project include?
Usually a site and water basis (seasonal analysis, salinity, temperature and discharge limits), the chosen pond, nursery or indoor system, post-larvae supply with health documentation, equipment packages such as pumps, aeration, feeding, monitoring and standby power, civil works and utilities, and harvest handling. A module is included only when you put it in scope. FishMatch staff review the brief before any sourcing; quotes and supplier availability are not guaranteed.
How much does a shrimp farm cost?
There is no universal cost per hectare or tonne. Use site surveys and project-specific quotations for the same installed scope, including civil works, utilities, logistics, commissioning, contingency and working capital. No market price or output is assumed here.
Which shrimp species should I choose?
The buyer selects the species and production stage. Whiteleg shrimp and black tiger shrimp are examples, not suitability recommendations. Local conditions, seed evidence, operator experience and market requirements need qualified review.
Do you guarantee survival or harvest dates?
No. Stocking, survival, growth, disease risk and harvest windows depend on biology, site conditions and operations. Separate proposed assumptions from measured evidence and commissioning milestones.
Who sees my project details?
Only authorized FishMatch staff handle the private sourcing workflow. Buyers do not receive supplier identities or contact details; supplier communications are staff-mediated.
Can I submit a smaller project?
Managed infrastructure procurement starts at USD 250,000 total project value. The existing intake can save smaller requests and point to free planning tools; they are not queued for managed sourcing.
Prepare your private brief
FishMatch is not a farm operator, manufacturer, EPC contractor or lender. Requirements vary by species, product and country; qualified engineering and local regulatory review remain necessary.
