Benchmark joins the Sustainable Shrimp Partnership in Ecuador

In 2022, Benchmark became a member of the Sustainable Shrimp Partnership (SSP), an initiative led by Ecuadorian shrimp producers who are committed to achieving, and promoting, the highest quality shrimp produced to the highest social and environmental standards.

Ecuador is the world’s largest shrimp producer with more than 1 million tonnes produced last year. All producing members of SSP are required to meet strict criteria including ASC certification, zero antibiotic policy, full traceability, and a neutral impact on water. With a portfolio covering hatcheries through to farms, Benchmark has a breadth of knowledge and solutions in advanced nutrition, genetics and health across the shrimp production lifecycle. As an Associate Member, we will share our technical expertise in the hatchery and nursery segment, with a focus on
shrimp welfare, disease, productivity, and care for the environment.

Becoming a member of the Sustainable Shrimp Partnership is a testament to our commitment to sustainability both here in Ecuador and globally. We are looking forward to working with members of the SSP to create a more sustainable future for shrimp production
