Commercial Aquaponics Business Plan

[Troy Workman]

I'm trying to write a business plan for a commercial aquaponics "farm", but writing such a document is not really within my skill set, and I'm having trouble finding a good template to start from. Does anybody have such a business plan or template? Don't worry, I'm in Texas, so I won't be competition for you if you're elsewhere. :-)

Hi everyone. There are three good commercial aquaponics business plans availble. You may have to contact the authors directly.

 

The best I found is by Friendly Aquaponics followed by that of Acme Aquaponics, The third is that by Coastview.

 

There is also a very useful business plan template-the Ultimate Business template going for about one hundred bucks.

Thanks for the business plan Sylvia I was also in need of something like this. Go Aquaponics!!!!  We will all change our communities together.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could send me a copy. I am in the midst of prepping a business plan to begin my business.  It would be great to have something to compare it to.

I am happy to send you our business plan, written in 2007, which got us a $100k loan from our local credit union...I'm not sure how applicable it will be, but you're welcome to it.

A simple business plan template could fit the bill. You just need a financial goal, way to achieve it, and detailed info on how that will happen. Is this so you can get financing to start a project?

Hello everyone!  I just found this site and joined last night.

 

I have really enjoyed what I have read so far!  I am looking forward to being part of your group.

 

I am also developing a business plan for a commercial system.  Chris thank you for the business plan.  Tim (at Friendly)  I would also appreciate a copy of yours.  My email is [e-mail].

 

Lastly, how can I get a copy of Acme Aquaponics business plan?

Thanks for your help.

Hi There

 

I know you've very generously offered a copy of your business plan written in 2007.  I'd love to take a look at it if you don't mind?  I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada and there isn't anyone here that has this kind of thing going...  I'd really appreciate it if you could.  You can email me at: [e-mail]

 

How is your business going?

 

Have you paid off the initial investment yet?

Jane, you will have a better chance at getting a hold of Tim at Friendly Aquaponics if you email him directly through their website.  He isn't very active in here lately.

Thanks Sylvia!

 

Hope all is well on your end of the aqua world!  :)

 

Cheers

Thank you so much Matthew, but when I went there, they say that page is not found.  Are you sure that is the right website address?

 

Thanks anyways, it is a great lead!
