Company Prepares To Construct Its First U.S. Large Scale Fish Farm
TAIPEI, TAIWAN / ACCESSWIRE / February 23, 2023 / Nocera, Inc. (NASDAQ:NCRA) ("Nocera" or the "Company"), a leading food production company focusing primarily on manufacturing and operating land-based Recirculatory Aquaculture Systems ("RASs"), announced today that on February 16, 2023, it closed on its $875,000 purchase of 229 acres of agricultural land in Montgomery, Alabama, of which was funded through available cash of $225,000 and loan proceeds of $650,000 from an unaffiliated Taiwan financial company. Nocera plans to use the land to construct its first large scale fish farm designed to use its RASs and tanks.
The Company plans to begin site preparation and construction by the third quarter of this year. The site is expected to serve as a model for future construction and is the first of many facilities that Nocera plans to launch.
According to Nocera's Chief Executive Officer, Jeff Cheng, "With just one facility located in Montgomery, Alabama, operating at capacity, we can see the potential to generate substantial revenue with a replicable model that can be used elsewhere in the U.S. and also globally. Our goal is to eventually build several fish farms across the U.S. These are exciting times for us and our shareholders."
Jeff Cheng added, "We remain committed to using the latest sustainable and environmentally friendly technologies in our food production processes, and we plan to ensure that the new fish farm adheres to the highest possible standards of environmental protection. We look forward to launching a fish farm on our newly acquired land in Montgomery, Alabama and additional fish farms to become a leading food production company in the United States and beyond."
