Fish feeding tech companies merge
Overview
Two technology companies specializing in automated fish feeding systems announced a merger that aims to strengthen their position in the global aquaculture market. The deal brings together complementary expertise in feed delivery hardware, sensor technology and data-driven feeding control software.
The combined business intends to offer more integrated solutions for salmon and other farmed species, focusing on improving feed efficiency, fish welfare and environmental performance.
Companies involved
The merger unites a leading supplier of automated feeding systems for sea cages with a company known for developing camera and sensor-based decision tools for feeding optimization.
Both firms have existing customers among major salmon producers and other aquaculture operators, and they plan to maintain operations under a shared ownership structure while coordinating product development and sales.
Strategic goals
The merged company will focus on:
- Delivering unified hardware–software platforms for feeding.
- Expanding into new aquaculture regions and species.
- Accelerating innovation in real-time monitoring and control of feeding.
- Helping farmers reduce feed waste and improve biological results.
Management expects that a single, integrated portfolio will simplify procurement and support for farmers, while enabling more precise and adaptive feeding regimes.
Technology and innovation
The joint portfolio is expected to include:
- Centralized and barge-based feeding systems.
- Camera and sensor packages that monitor fish behavior and environmental conditions.
- Software that adjusts feeding in real time based on observed appetite and water parameters.
By combining these elements, the company aims to support more consistent growth, better feed conversion ratios and lower environmental impact from uneaten feed and emissions.
Market and customers
The merger primarily targets the salmon farming industry but also opens opportunities in other segments such as trout and marine species.
Existing customers of both companies are expected to gain access to a wider range of products and services, supported by a larger technical and service organization.
Governance and ownership
The transaction includes a new ownership arrangement in which an investment firm with a focus on aquaculture technology becomes a key shareholder.
Founders and existing managers from both companies are expected to retain significant roles in the new structure to ensure continuity in strategy and customer relationships.
Author’s summary
The merger creates a stronger aquaculture tech player that combines advanced feeding hardware, sensors and control software to cut waste, boost fish growth and support more sustainable farming practices.
