Ca Mau’s strategic utilization of its natural resources and untapped potential has led to substantial growth and success across various sectors, with a particular focus on fisheries—a pivotal economic driver for the region. The Vietnamese region’s shrimp export turnover is anticipated to exceed USD 1.2 billion.
Annually, Ca Mau boasts a total seafood output surpassing 600,000 tons, with shrimp production alone accounting for over 250,000 tons, constituting approximately 22% of the country’s total. In the coming year, the projected shrimp export turnover of over USD 1.2 billion is poised to play a crucial role in propelling Vietnam beyond the USD 10 billion mark in seafood exports, securing its position as the world’s second-largest shrimp supplier.
Ca Mau’s shrimp products have made a mark in more than 60 countries and territories, with key markets including the United States, Japan, the European Union, and China. The success of Ca Mau shrimp is not just a commercial triumph but a source of pride for local farmers, whose livelihoods have become intertwined with this aquatic delicacy.
The province’s commitment to sustainable practices is evident in its efforts to harness the advantages of its forest and marine resources. Over the years, Ca Mau has actively promoted the development of ecological and organic shrimp farming, embracing innovative approaches such as shrimp-rice and shrimp-forest cultivation.
In line with its vision for continued growth, Ca Mau extends an invitation to potential investors. The province is dedicated to creating an environment that fosters opportunities for investors to explore, understand, research, and actively engage in production and business endeavors within its borders. This proactive stance is envisioned to not only enhance the reputation of the Ca Mau shrimp brand but also to showcase the potential products of the Mekong Delta provinces on the global stage, fostering participation in international value chains.
