Mar-25-2026

Avio Smart Market Stack has entered into a strategic collaboration with Aquasafra Holdings, Inc. (AHI) and Waterfield Farms, Inc. (WFI), USA, to explore the development of technology-driven aquaculture and fisheries ecosystems. This collaboration brings together the company’s rural distribution infrastructure and digital ecosystem spanning over 5,000 villages and a connected base of millions of rural participants with Aquasafra’s US-based aquaculture expertise, spanning advanced fish genetics, hatchery systems, and integrated aquaculture and aquaponics solutions, backed by over three decades of industry experience.

The partnership is aimed at building scalable, commercially viable aquaculture models that integrate advanced tilapia genetics, sustainable farming practices, and optimized supply chain linkages. The focus will be on improving productivity, survival rates, and input efficiency across aquaculture operations, while enabling new livelihood opportunities in rural and peri-urban markets.

As part of this initiative, the companies will explore the establishment of regionally adapted hatcheries for high-performance tilapia seed production, deployment of modern aquaculture systems, and integration of aquaponics-based models for climate-resilient agriculture. The collaboration will also evaluate feed optimization partnerships, lake and reservoir stocking programs, and structured capacity-building initiatives for farmers, cooperatives, and agri-entrepreneurs.
