A helping hand for farmers

About us

Shrimpco - Shrimp Producer & Promotion Foundation

"A helping Hand for Indian Farmers"

Shrimp producer and promotion foundation is a non for profit organization whose purpose is to bring all the Indian shrimp farmers under one umbrella and showcase the farmers’ magnanimous efforts in producing blue food for the national as well as the international market.

In today’s still growing global population of approximately 8 billion individuals, the importance of access to food is vital for meeting ones nutritional requirements. Aquaculture industry is going to play a very crucial role in fulfilling the food demand of the world and shrimps are the potential candidate to fulfill the the global food demand.

Given the existing competitive landscape in the global shrimp industry and with limited number of nations largely importing shrimps it has become important to find a new market space for allowing the growth of the Indian shrimp industry.

Problems persisting in the shrimp industry

Increase in input price

Decrease in selling price or farm gate price for shrimps due to rise in inflation and issues with global supply and demand.

Shrimp disease and culture issues reducing farming success rate

National trade barriers

Lack of market access

Lack of market based information

Lack of access to quality inputs and technical advice

Lack of access to credit and other financial tools

Domestic customer acceptance

Our mission to assist farmers in the areas such as

Market space – Creating linkage between the buyers and the producers, opening doors to new markets for shrimps from already existing saturated markets

Risk mitigation– Providing farmers forward integration with market assurance and also working on backward integration to assist farmers in getting the best inputs for their success.

Domestic promotion activities – With the most populous nation in the world and the growing economy, India has a good potential to establish a strong shrimp domestic market. With the population close to 1.4 billion and more than half of the population consuming non vegetarian food, including shrimps in their diet can bring self reliance to the Indian shrimp industry and safeguard our Indian shrimp farmers’ income and livelihood and reduce overdependence on export market.

Providing solutions - Integrating shrimp farmers with culture technology, financial sector, researchers, scientists, private and government organizations for maximum support and aid.

"Farmers are the backbone of any industry."

“Saving farmers means saving the livelihood of rural community associated with these activities”

"Saving farmers means preserving the livelihood of the rural community associated with these activities."

Even if all shrimp farmers in India, along with every individual involved in the shrimp industry's value chain, contribute their resources and time to domestic shrimp promotion, it could significantly impact the future of the Indian domestic shrimp market.

Shrimpco is a non-profit organization to support Indian shrimp farmers.
