The Australian shellfish
aquaculture company.

Innovative. Diversified.
Sustainable. Ambitious.
Yumbah began its journey to being Australia’s shellfish aquaculture company as a pioneer of onshore abalone farming before expanding to mussel, oyster and oyster spat production. Yumbah production systems mimic natural processes, producing highest quality seafoods in managed conditions across diverse seascapes, reducing pressure on diminishing wild catch.
Yumbah is a private company with a small group of long-term, ambitious shareholders who understand the power of patient capital and managing risk to unlock the value of premium shellfish.
We use the name “Yumbah” thanks to the generosity of the traditional custodians of the Yaygirr language, where the word means “larger shellfish”. Wherever it operates, Yumbah acknowledges and pays respect to Traditional Owners of those lands and waters, including the Barngala, Lutruwita, Bunurong, Kaurna and Gunditjmara people.
