About The Oceancy International
The Oceancy International is a project developer specialized in nature-based solutions and carbon markets.
The company develops large-scale mangrove restoration and agroforestry projects across multiple regions including Africa, Europe, Southeast Asia, and South America.
To date, the company has developed 8 large-scale nature-based carbon projects, several of which are entering the investment and commercialization phase.

The Oceancy works with local partners, investors, and corporate buyers to structure and finance climate projects through carbon credit sales, forward offtake agreements, and strategic partnerships.
Our ambition is to unlock large-scale financing for ecosystem restoration and connect high-impact projects with global carbon markets and climate finance.
