S-HOINT Is a one stop shop aqua culture company, providing a range of farming and consulting services. With a technology that has been tried and tested repeatedly, this twenty four hours power monitored hatchery is one of its kind in the sub region and has the capacity to produce Tilapia fingerlings of the highest quality for fish farmers in and around the country.
OUR MISSION
We are here to bridge the fish deficit gap, maximize the prospects of the aqua culture business to ensure that our farmers benefits from the trade whilst we establish economic stability within the region and the country as whole. Our quest here is to produce high quality fish to meet the shortfall in the country's need for domestic consumption as well as for export.
With our global population of 7 billion people, growing by nearly 80 million per year, it’s obvious we cannot escape the limits of nature. To live within Earth’sconservation boundaries requires rethinking meat and fish production practices to respect ecology. Most importantly, it means sarcastically reduce demand by slowing population growth. And for those of us already living high on the food chain, eating less meat, milk, eggs, and fish is the option left.
With the full implementation of the S-HOINTVaried AquaticSystem., Fingerlings production will be reliably available in large quantity, all year-round and at a cost between 2% and 7% of the finished fish price. This supply of affordable high quality fingerlings will change the dynamics of fish farming dramatically;improve economic stability, whilst closing the gap of the fish deficit in Ghana currently.
VISION
Over 175,000 youth join the labour force annually in Ghana. This represents 70% of the youth population. Out of these figures only about 500,000 are employed by the formal sector, whilst the rest survive in the informal sector or remain unemployed. Unemployment amongst youth in Ghana is on the increase and this affects every developing nation as the youth consist of the greater number of citizenry. Our vision is to implore innovative strategies to make aqua culture business appealing and lucrative for every young entrepreneur or farmer to realize the full potential of the aqua culture business.
CUSTOMER SERVICES
Customer’s satisfaction is prioritized and as such we are not interested in equity for work. We operate an online hub so we are on duty around the clock. First of all we are the goal getters, for most projects we are the catalyst, we work with individual clients towards mutually agreed upon goals for the project to succeed. We urge clients to retain us after the project is running to function as a nonbiased third party to perform technical and operational audits on a regular basis and also to ensure that they remain technologically up-to-date. It also ensures that our experience will help drive the project to sustainable financial success.
QUALITY STANDARDS:Quality Control & Adoption of Research Recommendations
Quality control is one of the standards we adhere to since the measure we put in our hatchery defines the quality of fingerling we will produce. In exercise of the powers conferred on the Minister responsible for the environment under section 28 of the Environmental Protection Agency Act 1994 (Act 490) i.e. L.I. 1652, and on the advice of the Environmental Protection Agency Board, regulations are made for the conduct and submission of environmental reports and impact statements. Schedule 2, regulation 3 of the Environmental Assessment Regulations, 1999, prescribes land-based aquaculture as one of the undertakings for which an environmental impact assessment (EIA) is mandatory. Research priorities are set by the WRI(Water Research Institute through consultations conducted internally as well as with other stakeholders while keeping in mind issues such as problems faced by fish farmers, inputs from the Research Extension Linkage Committee (RELC), international obligations, directives of the management board of the WRI and areas of benefit to the nation.
