Shrimp are small, aquatic crustaceans found in both saltwater and freshwater habitats. They have elongated bodies, long antennae, and a shell-like exoskeleton. Known for their sweet flavor and versatility in cooking, shrimp are popular in global cuisines. They play an important role in marine ecosystems and are also crucial to commercial fisheries and aquaculture.
The primary forms of shrimp include green or head-off, green or head-on, peeled, cooked, breaded, and more. Green or head-off shrimp are sold with their shells intact but without the heads, maintaining their raw, unprocessed state. These shrimp varieties come from several species, such as L. vannamei, Trachipenaeus curvirostris, Pleoticus muelleri, P. monodon, Acetes japonicus, Pandalus borealis, P. chinensis, among others. They are distributed through channels such as hypermarkets, supermarkets, convenience stores, specialty shops, and online platforms, serving applications in food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, industry, and biotechnology for both residential and commercial users.

The shrimp market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $56.46 billion in 2023 to $60.29 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to increasing global seafood consumption, rising demand for high-protein diets, improvements in cold chain logistics, a growing middle-class population, and higher disposable incomes.
The shrimp market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $78.67 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the forecast period is driven by the expansion of organic and antibiotic-free shrimp production, increasing health consciousness, the rising popularity of frozen and processed shrimp, a stronger focus on traceability and transparency, and the emergence of plant-based shrimp alternatives. Key trends in the forecast period include the adoption of recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation in shrimp farming, advancements in fishing techniques, investment in shrimp research and development, and innovations in aquaculture technologies.
The growing focus on health consciousness is expected to drive the expansion of the shrimp market in the coming years. This increasing health awareness is fueled by the rising incidence of lifestyle-related conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease, which have heightened the importance of healthy living. Shrimp is an excellent option for health-conscious individuals, offering a low-calorie, high-protein choice rich in essential nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants, which promote heart health and overall well-being. For example, in May 2022, a survey by the International Food Information Council among 1,005 American adults aged 18-80 and Gen Z adults aged 18-24 revealed that around 52% of participants adhered to a specific diet or eating pattern, up from 39% in 2021. The most popular choices were clean eating (16%), mindful eating (14%), and calorie counting (13%). This growing health awareness is a key factor driving the shrimp market.
Leading companies in the shrimp industry are focusing on the development of advanced technologies, such as real-time artificial intelligence (AI) analytics, to boost production efficiency and monitor shrimp health. Real-time AI analytics refers to technology that uses AI algorithms to process and analyze data instantly, providing real-time insights to enhance decision-making and operational performance. For instance, in March 2022, Umitron, a Singapore-based data company specializing in aquaculture, launched Umitron Eagle, the first real-time AI-based analytics solution specifically designed for shrimp farming. This system uses AI to monitor various biological and environmental conditions in intensive shrimp production, enabling producers to optimize feeding strategies automatically using real-time data.
