About Cool Catch

The story

About Us

Small-scale fish farmers in Kenya and Uganda produce over 50% of total fish but face challenges limiting productivity and profitability. Issues include inefficient production, inconsistent market access, and mismatched product offerings. CoolCatch is transforming this sector with data-driven solutions and reliable market linkages to empower 10,000 farmers.

A key challenge is inefficient production. Small-scale farmers struggle with inconsistent feed, leading to longer growth cycles 12–15 months vs. 6–8 for large-scale farms and 25% lower yields. This stems from cash flow constraints, limiting investment in optimal feeding programs.

Farmers also face market mismatches, often selling less-demanded fish at discounts, further shrinking margins. Poor post-harvest handling leads to spoilage and losses. A lack of reliable data hinders investment in small-scale aquaculture, exacerbating these issues.
