Ecuador's shrimp product exports consistently rank first in the world.

Ecuador's status as the world's largest shrimp exporter is due to its continuous growth in production and capacity enhancement. Despite competition from Asia, its export figures remain on a steady growth trend.

Ecuador's shrimp exports amounted to $7.205 billion in 2023, $6.992 billion in 2024, and $6.204 billion in the first nine months of this year, with expectations to exceed $7 billion.
