Get to Know Nebedaí

From Mangroves to Markets

Nebedaí is a social enterprise rooted in community. We exist because women in wetland & costal -dependent communities asked for a different model one that restores ecosystems instead of depleting them, and returns value to the people who steward the land and water. We build biodiversity-positive food systems where ecosystem recovery, food security, and women’s livelihoods advance together. Aquaculture is growing fast. But growth without equity and ecological care isn’t progress. Nebedaí is here to prove a better model works.

Our Model

Nebedaí transforms aquaculture sites into regenerative, community-owned production systems through four integrated pillars

Regenerative Aquaculture

Oyster, shrimp, and catfish farming aligned with mangrove restoration.

Local Value Addition

Community processing and packaging that increases women’s income.

Circular Blue Economy

Shell waste repurposed into fertilizer and eco-materials.

Traceability & Impact


Digital systems to measure biodiversity and unlock premium markets.

Our vision is simple:

We are scaling what already works:

Established women cooperatives
Active restoration sites
Operational production and local sales

To expand impact, we are strengthening:

Hatchery & cold-chain infrastructure
Processing & packaging capacity
Circular byproduct innovation
Market access & traceability tools
