What information is required to quote an aquaculture project?

To produce comparable offers a supplier needs: species, target annual production or capacity, farming method (pond, cage, flow-through, biofloc or RAS), site and water conditions (water source, salinity, temperature range, available land, power), the scope you want quoted (equipment only, design, installation, commissioning or turnkey), delivery location and Incoterms, target timeline and an indicative budget range. Preliminary figures are acceptable — we help close gaps before inviting suppliers.

Work in this order: species → production target → site and water conditions → farming method → system design requirements → equipment requirements → RFQ. Then state scope boundaries, capacities and standards, required documentation, spare parts and warranty, installation and training, and the evaluation criteria you will use. FishMatch Group structures this document with you at no cost to the buyer.

Your brief is reviewed and structured, qualified suppliers are invited per category, offers are returned for commercial and technical evaluation, and — where applicable — the project is presented to specialist financing partners before execution planning. Buyer identity stays confidential until you choose to disclose it. FishMatch Group is supplier-neutral and does not manufacture equipment; we do not guarantee supplier selection, financing approval or production results.

FishMatch Group is not a lender. Where a project is eligible, we prepare the summary, budget and documentation specialist aquaculture financing partners require and make a qualified introduction. The partner runs its own due diligence, and approval, terms and security requirements are entirely their decision.

Supplier selection criteria

How should a buyer compare aquaculture suppliers?

Compare on evidence, not on presentation: delivered projects at a similar scale and climate, engineering support during design, lead time commitments, spare-part and service availability in your region, certification and testing documentation, payment and warranty terms, and willingness to quote against your specification rather than substituting a catalogue package.

What are the warning signs in a supplier quotation?

Treat these as review triggers: no itemised scope, guaranteed biological or financial performance, no named delivery terms or lead time, no spare-parts or service statement, unclear responsibility for installation and commissioning, and equipment sizing that does not reference your water temperature, oxygen demand or biomass targets.

How does FishMatch handle supplier selection?

FishMatch is an independent sourcing service, not a manufacturer or reseller. The buyer submits one structured project request; our team reviews it first and only then contacts suitable suppliers on the buyer's behalf, presenting their responses through FishMatch in a comparable format. Buyers do not contact suppliers directly and nothing is sent automatically. The final choice stays with the buyer.
