It’s not a secret that shrimp farming causes a lot of pollution worldwide. And that apart from the harmful materials used in cultivation: antibiotics and hormones end up on your plate…
Time for a change! At Dutch Vannamei we farm in an ecological way. So without antibiotics and hormones and with a focus on nature and our environment.

We strive to produce local, fresh, and healthy shrimp, without the use of any antibiotics or pesticides. Year-round production with an as little as possible footprint.
As said: shrimp farming could be a dirty business, but at the heart of our operations lie seven key values that set us apart.
These values not only guide our practices but also reflect our commitment to sustainability, ethical farming, and the well-being of both our environment and communities.
litopenaeus vannamei
The shrimp we breed is known as the White Tiger Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). A decapod species, which comes from the family Penaeidae. A shrimp that originally lives off the west coast of Mexico to the west coast of Peru.
One fun fact about the Litopaneus Vannamei shrimp is that they are able to change their sex from male to female as they mature. When they are born, they are all males, but as they grow older and larger, some will transition to become females.
