About
AquiNovo develops proprietary non-hormonal, non-GMO specialty feed additives designed to increase fish yields and revenues while improving fish feed utilization, thus reducing feed costs. The value proposition for fish farms is higher fish yields at an increased profit. The companys initial products target tilapia, the second most commonly farmed fish for human consumption, and future products will target species such as salmon, carp, and shrimp. AquiNovo will sell its products to feed producers to be incorporated into their feed and sold to fish farms. Beyond providing an exceptional business opportunity, AquiNovos technology has a clear positive impact on sustainability and societies. It promotes achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, including preserving fish populations in the sea, providing food security and reducing hunger and poverty, and fostering responsible production.
