Following recent installation of the nursery systems, the company said the first commercial batches of barramundi fingerlings were successfully shipped to the facility.
The current production site has capacity to develop approximately 500 metric tons of premium fish per year, and the company has an option to expand to an adjoining site that would allow the project to develop to a total capacity of 1,000 metric tons.
“We are extremely pleased with the rapid progress we have made on this venture and our dedicated operations team should be commended for their efforts," said Cell Aqua Executive Chairman Perry Leach.
