The fish farming facility sits on approximately 897 acres and has two hatcheries, an office, equipment sheds, and 14 wells. It has 86 ponds ranging from approximately five to 30 acres that all have electricity provided for aeration.
The property will sell in three parcels, and bidders can bid on any combination or the entirety, according to Warren Ward, president of Albert Burney.
“Catfish is the nation’s fifth most popular seafood, and this is an excellent opportunity to serve a large and growing market. Catfish sales have increased steadily year after year, and this fish farming operation can produce four million pounds of high-quality catfish per year,” said Ward.
“With it being located 20 miles from a feed supplier and 45 miles from the processing plant, it’s the perfect opportunity for bidders to take advantage of a turnkey operation,” said Ward.
