Additional Information

Our vision is to distrupt and transform sustainable fish aquaculture in landlocked countries like Zimbabwe and Zambia. Global challenge By 2050, the world population will have grown to over 9 billion people. At the same time of negative climate change impact like droughts, natural fisheries are depleted when there is increasing demand for animal proteins. The initiative seeks to live up to inclusive sustainability responsibilities and ambitions over a period of several years as we work to fulfil a mission of “Feeding the Future”. The objectives are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
