Cargill's investment of approximately 65 million dollars USD creates 150 new jobs and enables the creation of 500 related positions – boosting the local economy and bringing nutrition technology and services to the shrimp industry.
Cargill formally opened the world's most modern shrimp feed plant in Guayaquil, Ecuador on the 11th October creating the potential for significant growth in the country's aquaculture sector.
With this plant, Cargill will be producing 165,000 tons per year, around 20 percent of the 800,000 tons of feed that the Ecuadorian market demands currently. Ecuador is the world's fourth largest shrimp producer, according to Global Aquaculture Alliance data.
