Indonesia is a maritime country with a large potential in fisheries, however it has a big challenge to fulfill the market needs, especially for the commodities of freshwater fish like tilapia, catfish, and carp. Capital constraints, technology and small-tomedium scale producers mean that capacity aquaculture production cannot reliably fulfill the demands of industry. Additionally, the lack of supply chain integration, distribution inefficiencies, and low transaction transparency often lead to price fluctuations and potential fraud. To address these issues, this research designs and implements an integrated information system called Iwak Nusantara. The system is developed as a web-based platform to support large-scale order management, real-time production recording, and distribution coordination among aquaculture farmers. The traceability system for aquaculture is incorporated as well to enable traceability from upstream to downstream of products, thus contributing to transparency, accountability and security of transactions. By demonstrating a replicable model for integrating order aggregation, production recording, and traceability into a single platform, this study offers practical guidance for system developers, policymakers, and aquaculture extension practitioners seeking to strengthen the digital readiness of small-scale fisheries actors, while also contributing a concrete empirical reference point for future research on information system design in resource-constrained, multi-stakeholder food supply chains.
