Are the happy prawns from Sirevåg the start of a new Norwegian farming adventure?
Could this be new attempt by shrimp into salmon territory after briefly owning Mowi once upon a time.
Promising to tell you the Prawn, the whole Prawn and nothing but the Prawn. Here I shine a light on global shrimp aquaculture and downstream markets. For those looking in from outside and those inside interested in the wider outside. Food trends, intelligence, tech, regulatory, investment and some fun, way out, or even wacky, shrimp material. Compressing 4,000 years of shrimp knowledge into 40 years – and counting.

Value addition processing was key to increased turnover with a model based on supplying farmers financing via seed and feed – in exchange for finished shrimp.
Farm productivity had plateaued with Taura – Ecuadors export growth only came about by increased hectareages under culture.
Marine Harvest International Shrimp Division developed and implemented HACCP system with USFDA support as test bed pre US law.
MHI shrimp also bought value addition work back upstream from BOH US restaurant (e.g. peeling at Red Lobster outlets) to closer to source operations in Ecuador. Better QC, yields at lower costs.
MHI T/O doubled in 2 years. Not from the shrimp aquaculture but from shrimp processing.
