Our Purpose

At Certified Traceable Shrimp™, we exist to fix what the shrimp industry forgot: the truth. In a market flooded with mislabeled, imported, and questionably sourced shrimp, we’re bringing transparency back to the table. Every shrimp with our seal is wild-caught in American waters, tracked from boat to box, and verified by real data — not vague claims. We’re not here to compete. We’re here to certify what’s real. Because when it comes to the food on your plate, you deserve to know where it comes from, who caught it, and how it got to you. No mystery. No middlemen. Just shrimp you can trust.

Transparency Starts Here

The shrimp industry has a problem. Nearly all the shrimp eaten in the U.S. is imported, farmed under questionable conditions, and often mislabeled. There’s little transparency, no way to verify the origin, and no accountability when it comes to labor, quality, or sustainability. Certified Traceable Shrimp™ is here to fix that. We created the first independent certification system that tracks wild American shrimp from boat to plate — so consumers, chefs, and restaurants finally know exactly what they’re buying and who they’re supporting.

How it works

It Starts With The Catch

Every certified shrimp starts with a registered shrimper. Each catch is logged with boat, waters, and date to ensure traceability from the start.

Tracked at Every Turn

Each handoff from dock to kitchen is recorded and verified. This prevents fraud and guarantees the shrimp you get is the shrimp that was caught.

Certified by a QR Code

Each batch gets a unique QR code that follows it from catch to plate. Scan it to see where it came from and how it got to you—full transparency.
