About Aquaculture

The inception of Aquaculture Ethiopia is to create the best possible platform for promoting and developing the aquaculture sub-sector in Ethiopia. 

The event is meticulously planned to be the meeting point for the aquaculture stakeholders to gather under one roof, with an overall mission of accelerating the sector growth.
Sustainability in aquaculture is critical. Introducing the concept of sustainability, through science and best management practices (BMP’s), aquaculture has the potential to change lives, aid development, and help our oceans.

This is beyond what I expected. This is my second time attending this exhibition, and I have had
the chance to meet people from different parts of Ethiopia-from Mekelle, Bahir Dar, and Arba
Minch-who came specifically to explore the aquaculture section of the event. I also had the
opportunity to speak with government officials, and I even received offers to integrate fish
farming with poultry and dairy businesses. This exhibition is truly a place of growth and
learning. My sincere thanks to the organizers.
