DELOS

DELOS is an Indonesian aquaculture technology company that treats shrimp farming as an engineering problem rather than a matter of instinct. Founded in Jakarta in 2021 by Guntur Mallarangeng, Aris Noerhadi, Alexander Farthing and Bobby Indra Gunawan Wibisono, it built AquaHero - a farm operating system combining software, a cloud data model fed by dozens of pond variables, and standardised operating procedures - and then went further than most software companies would, taking operational responsibility for the ponds themselves. Its AquaLink arm consolidates harvest, cold chain and export, sending traceable vannamei shrimp to Japan, the United States and, since 2026, UK retail under the consumer brand The Naughty Prawn Co. DELOS says its managed ponds yield several times the Indonesian average, has raised roughly USD 13.75 million from Monk's Hill Ventures, Alpha JWC, Centauri Fund and Arise, and topped LinkedIn's Top Startups Indonesia list in 2023.
