Pacific Catch
Pacific Shrimp
Premium Vannamei shrimp from Ecuador, the world's #1 exporter.
What is it?
The story behind the product.
Ecuador is the world's largest exporter of Vannamei (Litopenaeus vannamei) shrimp — a position earned through decades of disciplined aquaculture, low-density pond management, and direct access to clean Pacific waters. The result is shrimp with a firm bite, sweet flavor, and consistent count-per-pound that buyers can build menus and packaging around.
We offer head-on, headless shell-on (HLSO), peeled and deveined (P&D), and easy-peel formats across the full size spectrum — from U10 colossal down to 41/50 — in both fresh and IQF block frozen presentations.
All product is processed in HACCP-certified, FDA-registered facilities and ships with full traceability documentation for any destination market.

Sourcing
From producer to pallet.
We work with a network of low-density Vannamei farms along Ecuador's Pacific coast, all third-party audited for water quality and antibiotic-free production.
Processing facilities are walking distance from harvest ponds — shrimp goes from pond to packed in under 12 hours.
Ecuador grows the best Vannamei in the world. We just make sure the cold chain doesn't break between here and your plate.
