UAE · Private buyer portal

Submit your UAE aquaculture RFQ and compare proposals in one place

For commercial fish farm, RAS, hatchery and shrimp projects in the UAE from about USD 250,000. Free for buyers, no purchase obligation. Suppliers never see your contact details.

Start a UAE RFQ ابدأ طلبك بالعربيةMy requests and proposals

Starting an RFQ asks you to sign in or create a free account so your requests and proposals stay private. Prefer not to sign in? Use the project brief form (العربية).

How the portal works

  • 1. Submit your RFQ

    Describe species, production target, site and emirate, water source, power and budget range. The form starts with the UAE already filled in.

  • 2. Our team reviews it

    A person checks the brief, asks for anything missing and contacts suitable suppliers for you — your contact details stay private.

  • 3. Receive and compare proposals

    Reviewed supplier proposals appear in your portal. Compare price, scope, lead time and terms side by side, and ask questions on each one.

  • 4. Track status

    Every request shows its stage and a history of team updates, so you always know the next step.

What to have ready for a UAE brief

  • Emirate and site status (land, building, permits started or not)
  • Species and target annual production
  • Production system: RAS, ponds, cages or hatchery
  • Water source and salinity; cooling and power availability
  • Budget range and timeline
  • Equipment scope: full turnkey or specific packages

Missing something? Submit anyway — our team will ask for the rest before contacting suppliers. First human reply within one business day; supplier timing is never guaranteed.

What applies locally in the UAE

Have these points ready before you submit — they make supplier proposals comparable.

  • A farm licence from the federal ministry, renewed yearly

    The Ministry of Climate Change and Environment issues the licence to establish an aquaculture production farm: online form, payment, review, site inspection, electronic licence valid one year.

  • One federal law on aquatic resources

    Federal Law No. 23 of 1999 governs the exploitation, protection and development of living aquatic resources; Cabinet Resolution No. 120 of 2023 sets penalties.

  • Official site-selection criteria

    The ministry's UAE Aquaculture Guide (2017) covers farm classification, licensing and site-selection criteria — screen sites before asking for designs.

  • Emirate rules can add to federal ones

    Abu Dhabi has a Sustainable Aquaculture Policy (March 2019), and its environment agency launched the emirate's first sea-cage aquaculture project in August 2024.

  • Part of national food-security planning

    The National Food Security Strategy 2051 frames local food production, including aquaculture. It is context for a business case, not a permit or funding route.

You submit one structured request. We translate it into a technical RFQ, run it against qualified manufacturers and integrators in the relevant categories, and return normalised quotations you can compare side by side on scope, lead time and total cost of ownership.
