Overview
Oceanloop was built by seafood entrepreneurs, aquaculture scientists and RAS engineers who believe premium marine seafood can be produced closer to markets -- with better control, transparency and less pressure on natural ecosystems. Oceanloop was formed in 2023 by bringing together Germany's two pioneering forces in land-based aquaculture: Crusta Nova, one of Europe's first commercial RAS shrimp producer, and the marine RAS expertise of Sander through the acquisition of its daughter companies Förde Garnelen and neomar. This combination united decades of operational experience in seafood farming, engineering, water treatment and species biology within a single platform.
