Delivering farmers, a ruggedly-engineered system designed for efficiency and high yield is what the OysterGro system is all about. Developed over the course of two decades, this trusted oyster farming method is now in service with hundreds of farms worldwide, growing high-quality, restaurant-ready oysters for clientele with discerning palettes who are looking for that exceptional oyster experience. A proven building block for coastal communities, this tried and tested method has built a reputation for delivering profitable results for business success, while at the same time working in constant harmony with Mother Nature.

Not only is oyster farming environmentally friendly, it actually has positive benefits as well. Oysters are considered nature’s ecosystem engineers and have the reputation of transforming a water system’s quality and clarity. One single adult oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water a day. These bivalves have the ability to remove certain pollutants, such as nitrogen, restoring the water system to its natural state. In addition, OysterGro equipment has been engineered and designed to be “storm-ready” with industry-leading longevity to drastically reduce the possibility of marine debris.

The OysterGro aquafarming system is a trusted farming method and a proven performer, delivering convenience, strength and durability in even the harshest of weather conditions. It has been successfully tested and used around the world, in varying water depths and a multitude of climatic conditions.

The OysterGro method is a proven business model with predictable investment, performance and results. For farmers looking to run a viable aquaculture business with attractive profitability, the freedom to choose their working hours regardless of tides and the reliability they demand, the OysterGro method is the clear choice.
