Seajoy Group is First Latin American Shrimp Producer to Earn Four-Star BAP Certification
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [SeafoodNews] June 30, 2015
Seajoy Group is the first Latin American shrimp producer to four-star Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) certification for its operations in both Honduras and Nicaragua.
Four-star BAP status means that the product originates from a BAP-certified processing plant, farm, hatchery and feed mill. It’s the highest standard attainable in the BAP program.
“At Seajoy, we are proud to partner with Cargill in obtaining our fourth BAP star,” said Brad Price, the company’s vice president of operations and sales. “Together we are working to improve our feeding efficiencies as well as minimize our fishmeal requirements. To that end, we are in the second phase of testing an insect meal that we expect will replace 75% to 100% of our fishmeal sources.”
