Alpine Trout Farm

An excellent opportunity for interested parties to acquire the reputable and unique, well established and very profitable business and freehold of Alpine Trout Farm in Noojee, a historically significant town in the Gippsland region of Victoria, Australia.

The Alpine Trout Farm is well-designed with carefully planned water channels and strategically placed pumps for effective control of water flow through 58 established ponds, well fed by underground springs located around the property. The water and water systems represent the greatest asset of the property. The LaTrobe River has been legally dammed so that water flow is re-directed through the farm. It is the only flow-through water farming facility known to exist, which provides for a constant supply of fresh water into the farm – the true secret of the quality of the fish being produced for public and export consumption.

From the environmental perspective, the attitude of the owners is second-to-none, and because of the excellent filtering and quality control systems in place, the scenario produces an outcome of clean water in, even cleaner water out. The farm supports the local and Victorian Tourism Industry and there is history of steady trade made up of general public access “Fish-Out” from site, sale of fresh and smoked trout and salmon from on site, Australia-wide retail via major supermarket chains, wholesale fish markets and restaurants, and an ever increasing international export trade.

Recently, the owners have secured two major international clients, being the largest supermarket chains in both Malaysia and China – there is a growing list of international clients with export now making up the greater portion of business growth. After many years of hard work and a high level of business acumen preparing the farm for sustained future growth, the owners are reluctanly offering this property for sale due to genuine, difficult and unfortunate family circumstances.

Alpine Trout Farm represents the chance to acquire a long-established recreational fishery revealing a history of significant growth, boasting an excellent reputation for the high quality of its products along with the potential to grow the business substantially via foundational opportunities already in place.
