Inland shrimp farms in the Mid-South

America's favorite seafood travels 8,000 miles to your plate

Shrimp is the most consumed seafood in the United States. Over 5 pounds per person, every year. But virtually all of it is frozen, shipped from Indonesia, India, Ecuador, or Thailand. By the time it hits your plate, it's been in transit for weeks. Transparency is low. Freshness is gone.


There has to be a better way. And there is.

Fresh. Local. Traceable.

Why inland. Why here. Why now.

The Mississippi Delta already feeds America. Shrimp is next.

Recirculating Systems

Modern RAS and biofloc technology let us farm Pacific white shrimp hundreds of miles from the coast. Clean water, zero discharge, year-round production regardless of weather.

Never-Frozen Premium

Fresh shrimp commands 2-3x the price of frozen imports. Memphis restaurants and grocers want local product they can trust. We're 30 minutes away, not 8,000 miles.

Delta Infrastructure

Mississippi produces half of all US farm-raised catfish. Feed mills, hatcheries, USDA relationships, and aquaculture expertise already exist here. We're not starting from scratch.

The Delta is aquaculture country

North Mississippi and West Tennessee sit at the crossroads of America's richest agricultural corridor. The infrastructure is here. The market is here. The only thing missing was someone bold enough to farm shrimp inland.
