Wild Georgia Shrimp

The Wild Georgia Shrimp Certification Program is a system developed by the Georgia Shrimp Association to promote Georgia shrimp as a premium product, ensure consistent quality and prevent the mislabeling of shrimp products.  To do this, the program informs consumers about the differences between Wild Georgia Shrimp and imported pond-raised shrimp and conducts statewide marketing efforts and a certification program.  The program guarantees that the products labeled Wild Georgia Shrimp are a species indigenous to the clean coastal waters of the Atlantic Ocean, caught by local shrimp fisherman, and landed at a certified facility in Georgia.  To find out more about the program, visit www.wildgeorgiashrimp.com.
