Description

Catfish Fingerlings

The clarias catfish fingerlings have given a great boost to aquaculture and impacted the livelihoods of many catfish farmers. The Clarias spp. can adapt to a wide variety of environments and is very tolerant of extreme water conditions.

  • You will recognize the Clarias gariepinus by their cylindrical body with scaleless skin, small eyes, elongated spineless dorsal fin, and flattened bony head. The adult males are easily recognized by their distinct sexual papilla just behind the anus.
  • They appear greyish black in color with a creamy-white underside.
  • The Clarias spp. (African Catfish) are cannibals. Hence, farmers need to properly sort them into different sizes and put them in the appropriate ponds.

Handling catfish fingerlings

  • Handling live African catfish is easy because, as long as the skin remains wet, they can stay alive for many days out of water.
  • Depending on fish size and market demand, the fish may be steaked; filleted; or sold headed, gutted, and skinned.
  • Male African catfish exhibit the best dressing and fillet percentage.
  • Compared to other species, C. gariepinus is low in lipid and consequentially has no intense flavor (smell and taste).
  • Smoked African catfish are also in high demand be because they can be stored for longer periods without power while retaining nutritional quality.
  • These fish are remarkably resilient.

Shipping & Delivery

Afrimash provides various shipping methods. These methods vary based on the class of the item being shipped, the weight, and/or the customer’s choice at checkout. 

We currently offer three shipping options: Local Pickup shipping, Economy shipping, and Convenient shipping options.

​

Local Pickup Shipping

Local Pickup is the shipping option that gives our customers affordable delivery fees with flexible control over the pickup of their orders.

This means that the customer can pick up his or her package from a local road transport park or an agreed pickup point close to his/her home or office address. We ensure swift and secure deliveries through commercial vehicles from third-party transporters and road transport agencies across Nigeria.

We also make sure the third-party transporters are supplied with the contact details of the customers for communication and a smooth delivery process.

For this type of delivery method, we always encourage our customers to get ready to pick up their items before the drivers get to the agreed pickup point or park.

Customer Guidelines for Local Pick-ups
  1. Please get to the agreed local park or pickup venue early enough before the arrival of your order, which is packaged and sealed with your invoice.
  2. Please inspect your item immediately at the pickup point before leaving.
  3. If there is any problem, please contact the Afrimash logistics team on 2348092323212
  4. Also note that Afrimash works with 3rd party transporters/drivers, the rigors of the journey may affect their temperament while communicating with customers, thus we advise for patience and tact when communicating with the drivers as well as picking up your orders.
  5. Drivers are always paid per order before dispatch unless otherwise stated prior to dispatch of your order.
  6. Kindly disregard any solicitation for extra payment from any driver before picking up your order.

Local pickup is suitable for customers who are ready to pick up their items within 24 hours after order confirmation. Local pickup is also suitable for customers who are close to central locations and motor parks as this gives them easy access to the pickup of their goods.

Economy Shipping

Economy Shipping is a convenient and affordable delivery option we operate and manage in partnership with GIG logistics services which allows our customers to pick up their order conveniently at any GIG Office across Nigeria.

Customers can also track their shipments online to know when to pick up their packages. This affords our customers comfortable and timely pick up of their packages at designated GIG Offices across Nigeria.

Economy Shipping is suitable for busy customers who may not have the time to pick up their packages immediately. However, we expect customers to pick up their packages within a reasonable time frame.

Economy Shipping is also suitable for moderately fragile items with breakable parts and other fitting parts that need proper packaging and care.

Convenient Shipping

Our convenient shipping is provided in partnership with DHL Express, such that, customers get doorstep delivery of their packages.

As personalized delivery can enhance customer experience and increase brand loyalty when used as an integrated part of the customer’s purchasing journey, we have included this option to service customers who wish to have their ordered packages personally delivered anywhere in the world.

This option especially appeals to customers who wish to bypass the rigors of local pickups at car-parks or the use of pickup stations. It is suitable for non-weight and fragile items with smaller parts and fittings. Products shipped in this category are appropriately packaged, labeled, handled with extra care, and offer unique tracking solutions.

The Convenient shipping basically features 2 to 5 days delivery window period (working days) unless otherwise stated. This shipping option also offers customers the ease to track the status of their orders from dispatch to delivery with constantly updated reports on the DHL website.
