Fiskarna Aqua and Globaq Solutions announced the signing of a General Service Agreement (GSA) in Copenhagen, Denmark. The agreement marks the beginning of a long-term strategic partnership dedicated to developing Algeria’s first integrated aquaculture ecosystem—a project that combines international expertise, innovative technologies, and a shared commitment to sustainable food production. This milestone comes at a pivotal moment for Algeria.
The project of Fiskarna Aqua has recently reached several important milestones, including its designation as a National Aquaculture Strategic Pilot (NASP) and the preliminary approval of dedicated land and marine concessions in the Wilaya of El Tarf. According to them, those achievements reinforce their confidence that Algeria has all the ingredients required to become one of the leading aquaculture hubs in the Mediterranean and Africa. “Fiskarna Aqua is honored to contribute to this national vision”, they said.
Clear Commitment
Over the past few years, the Algerian Government has demonstrated a clear commitment to accelerating the development of the aquaculture sector through ambitious reforms, investment-friendly policies, and strong institutional support. As part of its vision for food security, economic diversification, and the Blue Economy, Algeria is creating the conditions for strategic projects capable of transforming the sector.
Building Far More Than Fish Farms
Together with Globaq Solutions and the Fiskarna Aqua’s network of international partners from Denmark, Norway, Spain, and Italy, they are building far more than fish farms, they assure.
They are designing an integrated ecosystem that will encompass freshwater RAS Aquaculture; offshore marine aquaculture; hatchery development; fish feed and biomass production; and research, innovation, and skills development.
“Our ambition is to establish a model that delivers long-term value for Algeria by promoting technology transfer, developing local expertise, creating highly skilled employment, strengthening food security, and attracting international investment”, they said.
A Unique Opportunity
Their vision is that Algeria’s geographic position, expanding infrastructure, and industrial capabilities provide a unique opportunity to develop a regional center of excellence for sustainable aquaculture technologies and seafood production. “This partnership reflects our shared belief that the future of aquaculture lies in collaboration across borders, innovation, and long-term commitment,” they added.
After the announcement, Fiskarna Aquawould thanked they partners at Globaq Solutions for their trust and professionalism throughout this journey, and also to Christian Sørensen, Kristoffer Lund, Mohamed Ali-Bouacha and Cizar Bachir Brahim. “Together, we are building the foundations of a more resilient, innovative, and sustainable aquaculture industry for Algeria and the African continent”, they finished.
A Young Company
For their part, Globaq Solutions, a company focused on setting new standards in land-based fish farming through advanced recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), was presented in society in 2024. Founded by Christian Sørensen -the former founder of Billund Aquaculture- and a team with decades of experience in RAS technology and project development, Globaq Solutions builds on the foundation introduced in late 2024. “We move forward with a clear purpose: to deliver cutting-edge, sustainable, and efficient aquaculture solutions, while advancing RAS technology and sustainability in global aquaculture,” they assured.
Globaq designs and delivers RAS that support responsible fish farming. With a dedicated and experienced team, they work side by side with our clients to develop tailored solutions that improve operational efficiency, protect the environment, and help shape the future of a more sustainable aquaculture.
“We are ready for what’s next and proud to move forward under the Globaq Solutions name,” said at that moment Christian Sørensen, Founder of the company. “This new chapter marks our continued commitment to responsible aquaculture and to delivering value for our clients through deep expertise and innovation.” In a few months they built a strong foundation, putting in place the right organization and processes. This allows them to offer a full range of services, including RAS design, turnkey project execution, retrofits, and system upgrades.
