How a Karachi entrepreneur built a thriving biofloc fish farming business

What does it take to turn a small fish-selling business into a modern aquaculture venture? In this episode of Scaled, we follow Shaukat Hussain, a Karachi-based entrepreneur who moved from traditional fish selling to biofloc fish farming, a system that allows high-yield fish production in controlled tanks. Starting with just a few small tanks, his operation has now grown to 18 large tanks, along with a company — As Samaak Biofloc Fish Farming — that provides training and services across Pakistan and the Middle East. This video explores how biofloc farming works, what it takes to scale it, and how one entrepreneur turned a simple idea into a growing business.
