These Arctic shrimp are 100% pure wild, growing in the icy seawater environment at depths of 150 meters or even deeper. The low-temperature growth environment results in extremely slow growth rates, requiring 3 to 4 years to reach the size required for commercial purposes, which also contributes to their firm and plump texture. Compared to the average warm-water shrimp, Arctic shrimp are petite and delicate, with an average of 120 – 150 pieces per kilogram.
After being caught, the company’s Arctic shrimp are quickly pre-cooked, graded, frozen, and packaged on board the ship, with the entire process completed within half an hour, maximizing the retention of the shrimp’s freshness and nutritional content. Arctic shrimp are rich in nutrients, containing a large amount of high-quality unsaturated fatty acids, making them an ideal source of high-quality protein, and they contain no cholesterol, with fat and calorie content being extremely low. They also contain a wealth of vitamins B12, zinc, iodine, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, iron, and trace amounts of calcium, magnesium, and sodium, making them a paragon of healthy food.
