Advancing Aquaculture Through

Expertise, Research, and Sustainable Innovation.

Aquamiks supports public institutions, universities, and EU-funded initiatives with specialized knowledge in marine and freshwater aquaculture.

Who We Are.

Aquamiks is a collective of aquaculture experts with over three decades of hands-on experience in farming management, system engineering, veterinary science, and environmental impact analysis.

Backed by Aquatrade’s 40+ years in the field, we bring a rare combination of academic rigour, operational knowledge, and policy understanding.

Why We Work with the Public Sector.

Public institutions face the dual challenge of developing sustainable food systems while supporting innovation, education, and ecological stewardship.

Our team has contributed to research initiatives, feasibility studies, and strategic development plans for marine and inland aquaculture — always aligning with European directives and national environmental regulations.
