DELOS has also launched AquaLink, a harvesting and logistics platform that allows it to capture and provide sustainable and traceable seafood supply downstream in the value chain. The company is currently responsible for producing and distributing thousands of tons of shrimp annually, and has taken steps to integrate its supply into the US$ 300 billion global seafood market.
