Royal Caridea (Royal) is a high-tech shrimp farming company focused on bringing to commercialization its transformative patent pending Integrated Multi-Phasic Production Technology (IMPT). Year-over-year, shrimp consumption is growing by about 20% fueled by a growing population of consumers, seeking high quality protein. Consumers “accept” frozen shrimp but are constantly in search of a locally grown fresh product because of illegal, unreported, and unregulated seafood entering the U.S. commerce that may or may not be contaminated with microbial pathogens. Wild fisheries nor current farming practices can meet demand for Fresh, Never Frozen or Live shrimp. A new approach to the shrimp farming industry is necessary and urgent! In the 1990s various research laboratories studied best practices for successful shrimp farming in the US. Their research concluded shrimp production methods needed to undergo a total transformation. Shrimp Production Industry Requirements for Success Year around production indoors Production level above 200 MT/ha/yr. Production of >20 gm shrimp Mortality of <20 percent Growth rate >1.5 gm/week Biosecure, sustainable and predictable What this meant was the industry had to undergo a total transformation. Royal’s technology is designed to be that transformative change. Royal’s patent-pending production method is, innovative, sustainable and, most importantly, supports raising shrimp close to the consumer that is free of antibiotics, toxic chemicals and is harvested under sanitary conditions. Local farming enables the delivery of shrimp products that come from a safe and sustainable source daily basis.Royal Caridea Address
