Join the Movement That’s Fixing America’s Shrimp Industry

Catch with integrity. Serve with pride. Certified Traceable Shrimp™ is your badge of honor — earning you trust, visibility, and credibility in today’s market.

For Shrimpers

Get Paid What You’re Worth. Imports are killing your price. We’re restoring your value.

Why certify your boat?

Because the American consumer is waking up. They’re asking where their food comes from. And with Certified Traceable Shrimp™, you can finally prove your catch’s value — not just in quality, but in accountability.

As a certified shrimper, you’ll get:

  • Your boat profile tied to every catch
  • Boat ID verification in our national traceability database
  • Real-time catch logging system (easy to use on your phone)
  • A scannable QR code system for each batch
  • Preferred listing for bulk buyers and suppliers looking for verified American shrimp

Bonus: Certified shrimpers are eligible for partnership with Dock to Door Shrimp™ and other direct-to-consumer providers — letting you sell at premium prices, not bottom-dollar market rates.
