In the Vietnamese market, Atlantic red shrimp is often used in Japanese cuisine restaurants, seafood establishments, and sold through wholesale and retail seafood distributors.
Red shrimp thrive in their natural oceanic habitat. With no artificial feed, no antibiotics, and no genetic modification, they are 100% natural shrimp. They are wild-caught in the clean, icy waters of the northern Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Argentina. These cold-water shrimp are tender, natural, and deliver a delicate texture along with a sweet, oceanic flavor. Moreover, their distinctive bright red color is a unique characteristic of cold-water shrimp.
