Barcelona, Spain. May 7th, 2025: The Sustainable Shrimp Partnership (SSP) welcomes Corbion, a leading company in sustainable ingredients and the largest producer of algae-based Omega-3, as a new associate member. This alliance strengthens SSP’s pre-competitive collaborative ecosystem, committed to driving sustainability in shrimp aquaculture by implementing more responsible and transparent practices, through projects, initiatives, and solutions.
“Having Corbion’s support enriches our reach and strengthens our ability to promote better practices. We are pleased to welcome them and are confident that this alliance will generate a positive and lasting impact,” said SSP Director, Pamela Nath. “At SSP, we work to continuously raise the standards of shrimp farming and move towards a more sustainable and successful model. This goal is possible thanks to the support of our associate members, organizations that offer innovative solutions enabling us to identify new opportunities to improve the sustainable performance of shrimp,” she added.
Meanwhile, Corbion’s Global Business Development Manager Aquaculture, Lenaïg Richard, stated: “Aquaculture is key to ensuring global food security, and we strongly believe its development should be guided by sustainability principles. At Corbion, we work to promote preservation in all its forms: food, food production, health, and the planet. As our AlgaPrime™ DHA – the world’s leading source of algae omega-3 – continues to further grow within shrimps, joining SSP is both a logical as well as exciting step for us. By joining SSP, we help build a more resilient and conscious industry and reaffirm our commitment to aquaculture that advances through collaboration, innovation, and respect.”
With Corbion’s addition, SSP continues expanding its network of partners committed to raising aquaculture standards globally. This new member joins a group of companies already supporting SSP’s mission, including Adisseo, BASF, BIOLAN, BioMar, Cargill, dsm-firmenich, Inve Aquaculture, Nicovita, and Skretting.
