Shrimp is a culinary delight in numerous cuisines, featured in dishes like shrimp scampi, shrimp cocktail, shrimp fried rice, shrimp pasta, and countless other recipes. It is known for its delicate flavor and versatility in cooking. Shrimp and other favorites like fish and crab are vital to the seafood industry. It is a crucial source of export earnings for many countries and is featured on the menus of restaurants, seafood markets, and grocery stores. Shrimp is commonly processed into various convenience foods, including burgers, breaded and frozen shrimp, and shrimp-based soups and sauces. These products cater to busy lifestyles and contribute to the convenience food sector.

Shrimp is also an ingredient in pet food, especially for aquatic and reptile pets. The nutritional value and appeal of shrimp make it a popular choice for pet owners. Shrimp-derived compounds, such as chitosan, are used in the pharmaceutical and biomedical industries. Chitosan, a substance found in shrimp shells, has applications in wound healing, drug delivery systems, and other medical technologies. Shrimp waste products, including shells and exoskeletons, are used as organic fertilizer and soil conditioner in agriculture and horticulture. The chitin in shrimp shells can enhance plant growth and protect crops from diseases. Due to its hypoallergenic and moisture-retaining properties, chitosan from shrimp shells has made its way into cosmetics and skin care products.

According to data collected by the European Market Observatory for Fisheries and Aquaculture (EUMOFA) from 11 EU Member States, common shrimp (12%) and red and blue shrimp (10%) together accounted for 22% of total first-sales value of crustaceans recorded in January 2022.

Bulgaria, France, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Sweden recorded an increase in both first-sales value and volume. This data shows that most European nations are significant consumers and producers of shrimp. Thus, these factors will boost the demand for shrimps in the Europe region.
