Aquaponics Iberia
Fish n’ Greens project intends to take advantage of Aquaponics Iberia's technology and expertise to implement full operational medium/large productive systems to grow fresh food from these sustainable highly efficient aquaponics technologies.
When installing these units on the outskirts of large European cities, fits perfectly the “Farm to Fork” strategy, reflecting a totally sustainable food system and contributing to making Europe’s food system the gold standard for sustainability. Additionally, it will help increase Europe's food supply chain resilience in the wake of possible crises similar to what we have lived in the last years as well as adverse conditions as a result of climate change.
Our Value Proposition
Each productive system proposed in our business plan can generate 120 tons per year of sustainably certified fresh fish and 400 tons per year of certified ultra-organic vegetables. Despite being highly productive, this technology allows growing tasty fresh food following current consumer trends and the European policies regarding the Blue Economy and the Green Deal, by:
• being organic and healthy (no pesticides, no herbicides, no synthetic fertilizers, no GMOs, no medication, no heavy metals, no microplastics…),
• being sustainably produced (ASC, Friend of the Sea, Friend of the Earth certifications, no water waste, no effluent discharges, highly reduced carbon emissions, wild fish-friendly, renewable energy operated, recycling of byproducts, …),
• and being locally grown (close to urban markets, increasing freshness, reducing transportation and food waste, contributing to the local economy, and increasing trust through openness and availability for scheduled consumer visits to the production site).
By growing and supplying local, fresh, ultra-organic, and sustainable food, the ideal target end customer is a growing market: the healthy and sustainable-conscious urban consumer.
Full balanced closed-loop aquaponics system using our long-term productive technology, which reduces production costs and water waste, increases productivity and food safety. Full system for peri-urban locations to sustainably supply cities with fresh certified food.
