Located in the heart of Moldova, Aquatir Sturgeon Farm is one of the world’s most advanced and environmentally responsible producers of premium sturgeon caviar. With a sprawling facility covering 170,000 square meters, a full-cycle aquaculture system, and a passionate team of specialists, Aquatir sets the global standard for modern, ethical, and sustainable caviar production.
A Leader in Aquaculture Innovation
Aquatir’s strength lies in its seamless blend of state-of-the-art technology and classical caviar craftsmanship. The farm operates a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS)—a highly controlled environment where water quality, oxygen levels, and temperature are continuously monitored and optimized. The system uses clean, filtered water from deep artesian wells, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for the sturgeon from hatch to harvest.
Each fish at Aquatir is raised with the utmost care and respect. Monitored individually with health passports, they undergo regular evaluations including ultrasounds, visual inspections, blood tests, and weight checks—ensuring both animal welfare and product consistency.
From Egg to Excellence: A Full Technological Cycle
One of Aquatir’s defining features is its full-cycle production, meaning the farm manages every stage of the sturgeon’s life—from fertilized egg to mature fish producing caviar. This closed-loop system allows for complete quality control, sustainability, and traceability.
Fries are divided into two categories: one group raised to produce high-grade caviar, and another dedicated to broodstock replenishment. The company also plays an active role in conservation, working with the Institute of Zoology of the Republic of Moldova and CITES to restock native sturgeon populations. Over 50,000 Russian sturgeon fries have already been released into the Dniester River.
Premium Caviar, Produced with Integrity
Aquatir’s commitment to quality is evident in every step of their caviar production. The company uses only salt—no preservatives, GMOs, antibiotics, or hormones—to enhance the natural flavor of the roe. Salting levels are tailored to consumer preferences, typically between 2.5% and 5%, while preserving the authentic taste and delicate texture of wild sturgeon caviar.
What makes Aquatir’s product especially unique is their strict policy of not mixing roe from different fish. Caviar is sorted by color and grain size to maintain the natural character of each batch. Every tin is hermetically sealed and stored in specialized refrigeration to maintain ideal freshness.
Science-Driven, Quality-Guaranteed
Aquatir has implemented rigorous food safety and quality systems, including ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 22000:2005, validated through multiple certification audits. The farm also operates its own accredited laboratory, performing advanced microbiological and physicochemical testing to ensure every batch meets international standards.
Each production stage—raw materials, packaging, and finished product—is subject to strict veterinary and sanitary control. This ensures not only compliance but a genuine commitment to product integrity.
The People Behind the Perfection
Behind Aquatir’s success is a team of dedicated aquaculture experts, whose passion and knowledge drive the company forward. The farm’s specialists constantly explore new techniques, improve sustainability, and refine traditional methods to deliver a caviar experience rooted in excellence, ethics, and innovation.
