Market Drivers:
- Nutritional Value and Versatility: Shrimp is a rich source of protein, phosphorus, and selenium, with additional health benefits such as antioxidant and anti-aging properties. This makes it a preferred choice not only in the food industry but also in pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and cosmetics.
- Rising Global Demand: Shrimp consumption has grown steadily, particularly in Asian cuisines, but also in international markets due to its taste, affordability, and easy availability.
- Cluster Farming and Government Support: Governments in key shrimp-producing nations such as China, India, Vietnam, and Thailand are promoting cluster farming through fiscal incentives. This strategy improves production efficiency, sustainability, and disease control, supporting the industry’s long-term growth.
Leading Shrimp Producers and Exporters:
- India and Vietnam have emerged as the world's leading shrimp producers, with India leveraging its low labor costs and large-scale production capacity, particularly in value-added shrimp. Vietnam has experienced significant growth, especially with vannamei shrimp, a high-yield species that is cultivated intensively for better productivity.
- Ecuador, which emphasizes sustainable farming practices, has become a significant exporter, particularly to the US, China, and Europe. Its high-quality shrimp is increasing in demand globally, putting it in competition with traditional producers like India.
- Other top shrimp-producing countries include China, Indonesia, Thailand, and Bangladesh, with China also being the leading importer of shrimp globally, due to a decline in domestic production and a surge in demand for imported shrimp.
Species Breakdown:
- Litopenaeus vannamei (L. vannamei), also known as Pacific white shrimp, dominates the market, accounting for over 50% of global production. It is preferred for its adaptability, high growth rates, and resistance to extreme environmental conditions.
- Other species, such as Penaeus monodon (black tiger shrimp) and Macrobrachium rosenbergii (giant river prawn), are also seeing growth, particularly due to heavy imports from major shrimp-consuming countries like the USA and China.
Shrimp Size and Product Forms:
- Medium-sized shrimp (21-25 count) are most commonly found in dishes globally, often marketed as “jumbo” or “extra-large.” This size category, along with large shrimp (26-30 count), is in high demand in both retail and restaurant sectors.
- The shrimp market is also divided by product forms such as breaded, cooked, peeled, green/head-off, and green/head-on, with green/head-on shrimp catering to high-end consumers and restaurants due to their rich flavor.
