Turning an invasive threat into a sustainable resource.
Great Lakes Invasive Carp Processing & Fisheries harvests, processes, and distributes invasive carp from Michigan waterways — supplying Asian markets, restaurants, and wholesalers across the Midwest.
Invasive carp threaten the heart of the Great Lakes.
Silver, Bighead, Grass, and Black carp consume vast amounts of plankton, displace native species, and disrupt aquatic food chains. Without sustained removal, biodiversity, recreational fishing, and regional economies suffer.
An end-to-end invasive carp management program.
