Federal seafood labeling cases spark desire for stricter import laws
SUMMARY: A shrimp distributor is advocating for stricter laws on imported seafood in response to increasing foreign shrimp sales affecting local businesses. Destiny Polster reports on a case involving Mary Mahones and Quality Poultry and Seafood, highlighting that 93% of shrimp consumed on the Gulf Coast is imported from countries like Indonesia. Bethany Fayard, Vice President of Ocean Spring Seafood, notes that cheaper foreign shrimp puts domestic producers at a disadvantage. Cheryl’s Steakhouse owner emphasizes her commitment to using only U.S. shrimp. While some states require disclosure of foreign seafood, industry leaders worry these measures won’t save local businesses.
The imported product is causing a strain on companies like long-time shrimp processors and distributor Ocean Springs Seafood.
