Mattias Djurstedt (CEO)

Senior Aquaculture Consult. World leading developer of shrimp/fish farms.
The world’s population is exceeding 8 billion people, and growing. So is the global demand for food. Today, one third of the world population doesn’t have access to adequate food.
Today's supply of food is dependent on extraction of planet Earth’s limited resources, making it not a long-term-solution.
Sustainable fish farming has the potential to both solve the challenge of malnutrition and at the same time fight climate change.
However today's fish farming is not farmed sustainably.
Cresponix is a sustainable fish and shrimp farming technology, and the establishing market is scampi shrimp farmed in Europe.
Why start with scampi?
- Far less competitive landscape
- Stronger market demand
Cresponix will build up its “large company” production price advantages together with the EU scampi product. Afterwards a sustainable and affordable farmed fish product can be established in the markets of the developing world.
Unfair advantage of Cresponix:
- Fish and shrimp farming through Cresponix technology is 100% organic waste free.
- Gets a 100% sustainable feed by recycling food waste into microbial aquaculture feed.
- No disease outbreaks, no antibiotics.
- Decrease production cost because of 40% less feed consumption and higher survival rate.
- Enables locally produced tropical fish and shrimp species inside cold climates by reusing industrial low-grade waste heat, to heat up the farms.
