About our prawn hatchery and farm






Fresh water prawn known as Golda Chingri in Bangladesh is the tastiest as well as costliest prawn among all shrimp and prawn species. The large ones are sold at 700 taka per kg (head on from our pool side).

At our hatchery, we produce roughly 10 million PL every year in nearly 100 water tanks. Almost 95% of these are sold to farmers in Barisal and Khulna areas. Rest we retain to use in our own farming. We have a 10 acre farm at Kuakata and a 50 acre farm at Hajipur, 15 KM away from Kuakata. Both these farms have prawn and a number of other fishes such as tilapia and various carp fishes.
