Based in Dixon, CA, the Company is a fully operational commercial fish farm with an existing customer base and a large inventory of antibiotic-free white sturgeon, black bass, silver carp, and striped bass. The proceeds from Hunter Street and CapitalView’s investment will be used to fund capital improvements at the Company’s aquaculture facility and to refinance existing debt.

The Company has owned the Dixon, CA aquaculture facility since 2014 and has made significant long‐term investments in developing its robust stock of white sturgeon, which the Company is presently harvesting through sustainable means. The financing provided by Hunter Street and CapitalView will allow for improvements to the facility, including an additional indoor hatchery, grow tanks, and an onsite processing facility that will be capable of large‐scale processing of harvested stock.

“We’re pleased to support the growth and further development of the Company’s sustainable aquaculture facility, which at scale will represent a meaningful share of the domestic and global market for white sturgeon,” said Andrew Platt, Partner at Hunter Street. “This deal is an example of our ability to custom craft loan terms for a niche business in an attractive and growing market segment – sustainable domestic aquaculture. We are excited to partner with the Company as they achieve their next level of growth.” 

“We continue to see significant opportunities to partner with small and medium-sized businesses that don’t have access to the traditional financing markets, and the latest macro dislocation will only increase that demand,” said Neal Johnson, CEO and CIO of Hunter Street.
