Aquarium Animal Import/Distribution with Excellent Industry Reputation
Business Description
Founded in the year 2000, the company has built an excellent reputation for importing and distributing high quality pet fish, aquarium fish, coral and other invertebrates. The company services all major public aquariums and zoos in the US, international public aquariums and zoos, retail shops, aquarium maintenance and installation companies and wholesalers.
The company has built durable relationships with the best aquatic animal collectors in the world. Animals are sourced globally from tropical, temperate and coldwater locations.
Within its 12,000+ sq. ft. facility, the company has built proprietary aquarium systems designed specifically to hold and quarantine wild-caught aquarium animals in a clean and safe environment. These aquarium systems were designed to be highly cost-effective to operate reducing labor and management costs.
The company has developed industry-leading protocol for animal acquisitions, bio-security and aquatic life support systems. SOPs have been written and implemented. The staff has been highly trained to receive, hold and transport a wide variety of aquarium animals. The company has a well-organized set of historical data including product costing, production rates and technical measurements.
Owners have built a great foundation. They are now looking for the right party to continue providing high quality animals to the public aquarium industry while also giving new sectors, such as the end-consumer, access to the best aquatic animals available. Selling to the end- consumer and online distribution will be especially profitable with an expected threefold revenue increase for the same amount of production work in the pet fish wholesale environment.
