What Aquarev does
Aquarev (legal entity: PT. Aquarev Teknologi Budidaya) is an Indonesian aquaculture technology company founded in 2019 and headquartered at Treasury Tower, SCBD, Jakarta. The company operates a cluster-based ecosystem model that recruits smallholder shrimp farmers and organizes them into cooperatives to transform traditional ponds into modern, productive farms. Aquarev provides four core offerings: (1) Pond Renovation consulting (Renovasi Tambak) covering layout design, water flow optimization, and construction supervision; (2) Technical Operational Assistance through field-based technical partners delivering on-site supervision and decision support; (3) Shrimp Supply (Pasokan Udang) of raw and cooked shrimp sourced from partner farms; and (4) Sustainability Initiatives including mangrove conservation and an Environmental and Social Management System (ESMS) aligned with International Finance Corporation (IFC) principles. The technology backbone is the ESMS for systematic identification and management of environmental and social risks, combined with the proprietary cluster/cooperative model that standardizes farmer onboarding, training, and quality control across regions.
Aquarev serves a vertically-segmented base of small-scale Indonesian shrimp farmers across six regions (Lampung, Cilacap, Pasangkayu, Bangka, Kendal, and Dumai) and reports 107 active farmer partners, 12.97 hectares of managed pond area, 20.55 kabupaten/kota coverage, and 246.78 tons of cumulative harvest yield. Its go-to-market combines community-led farmer recruitment, enterprise field sales through technical partners, and event-driven brand-building (participation in AIFE 2025, TCRS Shrimp Summit 2025, SAC 2025). Revenue is generated through transaction-based shrimp sales and professional services fees for pond renovation and technical assistance programs, with pricing disclosed on a contact-quote basis only. The firm maintains a small internal team (1-10 employees) and has no publicly disclosed funding rounds, suggesting it is currently bootstrapped or founder-financed at this stage.
