Shrimps, also known as prawns across Asia, are one the cheapest sources of protein among all the other types of seafood available. Shrimp farming has been a traditional occupation for centuries, prevalent across Asia. Large-scale commercial farming started around the 1970s, mainly to cater to the growing protein demands from Western Europe, US, and Japan. At present, shrimp farming has emerged as a robust occupation globally, with production mainly concentrated in Asia Pacific.
There are over 2,000 different species of shrimp across the world, of which only 350 are of economic interest. Of these, only 100 constitute yearly shrimp catches around the world. Different shrimp species are widely spread around the world, spreading from the equator to the poles.
Over the past few years, the production of shrimps from wild-harvest capture fish and aquaculture has almost equaled the former accounting for 43.8% of the global shrimp market volume share in 2017. Companies are focusing on expanding their aquaculture breeding grounds to reduce the reliability on wild-harvest capture to maintain the ecological balance. Thus, the shrimp aquaculture market share is expected to increase significantly during the forecast period.
Whiteleg shrimp, natantian decapods nei, akiami paste shrimp, giant tiger pawn, banana prawn and northern prawn are some of the most widely farmed shrimp species. Of these, 4,365 kilo tons of whiteleg shrimp were harvested in 2017. Also known as king prawn or pacific white shrimp, it is an exotic species with high demand from consumers present in North America and Europe.
Natantian decapods nei was the second largely harvested species accounting for 11.3% of the global shrimp market production in 2017. They are mainly bred, reared and harvested in Asia Pacific due to the suitable climate. China, Vietnam, Indonesia and India are the largest producers of this species in 2017.
Food was the largest end-use accounting for 72.5% of the global shrimp market share in 2017. Rising global demand for protein due to the awareness among consumers regarding its benefits for maintaining health is expected to augment the demand for shrimps over the world. The need for fresh and healthy food is expected to augment the growth of the global shrimp market over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific was the largest producer contributing to the almost 80% of the global shrimp market’s value and volume in 2017. Conducive environment for fish rearing and breeding has resulted in establishing Asia Pacific as a leader within the global shrimp market. Additionally, large population and the consumption of fish as staple food in several countries have also resulted in the region, being the largest consumer of shrimps.
The global shrimp market is a highly competitive business with concentration depicting high fragmentation, owing to the presence of numerous regional players, especially with their manufacturing base in Asia Pacific. Thai Union Group, Aqua Star, Maruha Nichiro Corporation, Mazzetta Company, Charoen Pokphand Food PCL and Camanor Produtos Marinhos Ltda are some of the key players operating in the global shrimp market.
These players aim to enhance their global market position by targeting the customer base in other regions especially, those that prefer high-quality, nutritious seafood products. North America followed by Europe are the key target souks for well-established multinational players, owing to the growing consumption of shrimp in these regions.
