About Us
VARS Aquaculture
Since 2017, VARS Aquaculture has supported hatcheries with high-performance live feed and nutritional solutions designed to improve reliability, increase yields, and drive measurable results.
What began with targeted rotifer trials in Türkiye has evolved into a growing network of technical partnerships across South Korea, the Middle East, Canada, and beyond. Today, our products and protocols power hatchery systems across species and environments — backed by real-world performance data and continuous on-site support.
Core Strengths
Our mission is to improve hatchery performance while supporting responsible aquaculture practices. By optimizing feeding strategies and reducing input waste, we contribute to more resilient, cost-effective operations — with sustainability built into the system.
Proven solutions for rotifer, artemia, and microalgae production, supported by technical trials and on-site deployment.
Advanced formulations, including moist pellet feeds for Bluefin Tuna, designed to maximize energy transfer and reduce waste.
We help clients run structured trials with clear KPIs to validate improvements in feed efficiency, larval development, and production cost.
