Aquaculture found us.

Our journey began with a seed investment in a Norwegian aquaculture asset financing firm. We branded the business, developed a cohesive marketing strategy, and created an international leasing facility infrastructure for a global aquaculture leader.

During our investment tenure, the firm generated historic revenues and expanded its presence globally. Our team exited after an attractive return on its seed investment while retaining management control and a long-term interest in the global leasing facility.

The global pandemic and overseas warfare exposed the fragility of our food systems, triggered widespread inflation, and intensified the pressures on climate-stressed food production.

In response to these pressing challenges, we have taken a unique approach. We launched Peritus Capital as an SEC-registered, FINRA-member firm, bringing solutions-driven institutional capital to the forefront of today’s food system challenges.

Our early success includes financing one of the world’s largest Recirculating Aquaculture System projects in partnership with a leading food-focused private equity firm.

But we are ever evolving, and we want you to join us.

...to nourish the world and feed life.

Today, we work with a diverse range of companies, from startups to established corporations, who are leaders in production, technology, processing, and distribution systems. Their capital needs typically range from $10m to $250m.

Our mission is to expand our insight and reach across the food system, from farm to plate, and play a pivotal role in enabling sustainable ecosystems worldwide. This is not just a goal but a promise for a brighter, more hopeful future, where our actions today will transform the food systems of tomorrow.

Our clients are not just companies but pioneers in food production. We are finding new ways to enhance animal welfare, scale new protein sources, and develop controlled-environment technologies. These collaborations are not just exciting; they are shaping the future of food.
