Kabiobio Hatchery
Southern Africa's Premier Biosecure Fingerling Facility
High-quality certified monosex tilapia fingerlings produced under rigorous biosecurity — your commercial supplier, training site, and technology demonstration platform in Lusaka, Zambia.
The Facility
A Working Commercial Hatchery — and Much More
Kabiobio Hatchery is our working commercial facility and the operational heart of Tilapia Centre. It serves simultaneously as a commercial fingerling supplier, a live demonstration of world-class biosecure aquaculture practice, a training site for farmers and operators, and a technology validation platform for new systems and methods.
Participants leave with immediately applicable skills, not just theory — supported by our free Farmer Planning Toolkit and ongoing extension support.
Our work spans the full biological cycle — from broodstock selection and genetics through nutrition and feed optimisation, to water quality management, disease prevention, and hatchery system design.
- Biosecure Operations — Footbaths, quarantine areas, PPE protocols, and visitor management per international standards
- RAS-Based Production — Recirculating aquaculture systems for year-round, consistent fingerling supply regardless of season
- Certified Monosex Fingerlings — Verified all-male tilapia for maximised commercial growth performance
- Documented Broodstock — Disease-free, genetically diverse foundation stock with full provenance records
- Quality Assurance Testing — Regular health screening and monosex verification before supply
- Training & Demonstration — Farmers, investors, and researchers observe commercial-scale systems in operation
