About Us
What We Do
Matsya has bespoke designs and novel processes for producing fish in the most economical and sustainable manner. Matsya retrofits existing and builds new aquaculture systems on a turn-key, revenue share basis. Contact us if you would like to discuss options. We also operate our own facilities integrating advanced data analytics and sophisticated online marketing to optimise performance against financial strategy. We are especially interested in "city centric" and distributed production - noting that Matsya technology scales down without compromising margin on sales.
We offer a full advisory service aimed at improving client system performance, protocol development for new species, optimisation of client waste-stream conversion to high protein/lipid feed and financial modelling and investment options for fish production. Our longer term road-map focuses towards "protein as a green sustainable food ingredient" for human consumption.
