    Founded in 2017 in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, Jala offers a comprehensive digital ecosystem for shrimp farmers, combining real-time aquaculture data analytics, connected farm equipment, operational assistance, financing, input supplies, and a harvest marketplace. Its flagship Jala App is used by more than 20,000 farmers and has monitored over 15,700 tons of shrimp across more than 35,300 ponds. The platform has facilitated the harvesting of over 9,900 tons of shrimp, underscoring measurable impact on farm output and efficiency. By integrating data-driven insights with financial and supply-chain support, Jala aims to raise farm productivity while promoting sustainable practices. The company positions itself as a one-stop solution, reducing inefficiencies that traditionally challenge the shrimp industry. With its newly raised capital, Jala plans to expand operations throughout Sumatera, Sulawesi, and Nusa Tenggara, broadening its national footprint. The focus on scaling suggests continued investment in technology infrastructure and farmer onboarding to drive user growth and transaction volume.
