The farm is geographically poised to be one of the world leaders in the fisheries sector. Recognising the growing market demand for sustainable aquaculture-produced marine fish, the farm grows and sells high quality, competitively priced, safe and delicious fish using innovative technology, while preserving the environment.

The farm’s marketing system transports fish to consumers in every region, both domestic and international.

Headquartered in Dubai, the farm has set up three facilities — a caged farming facility in Dibba, a hatchery in Umm Al-Quwain and an inland farming facility in Jebel Ali.

In 2017, the farm produced a capacity of 2 million kg, and has plans to continue the farming journey.
