Pierrot Kokou Akakpovi, CEO of Togo’s largest organic tilapia farm, has ambitions – both for himself and the country’s aquaculture sector in general – to grow substantially in the coming years.

With only 25,000 tonnes of fish produced domestically, Togo currently imports 80,000 tonnes of seafood to fill the gap in demand. However, many Togolese are now beginning to appreciate locally produced organic tilapia, following concerns about imported fish from Asia and other parts of the world.
