Fresh Coldwater Shrimp & Prawn suppliers on Freshdi are spread over 9 countries, led by Thailand at 20.0%, as of 15 November 2026.
Only 10 suppliers are currently active in the Fresh Coldwater Shrimp & Prawn category, and none have updated their listings in the last 30 days — just two did in the past 90. This means the supply is stable but not dynamic; buyers should treat each supplier as a potential long-term partner rather than a temporary option, and expect to engage directly for timely updates or changes in availability. There are 12 active listings for this category, a small but focused catalog. While it doesn’t cover every possible size, grade, or packaging, it gives buyers a clear starting point to match their needs — especially for standard specifications — without needing to start from scratch with a custom request. Suppliers come from 9 different countries, with Thailand making up 20.0% of the total. This geographic spread offers buyers flexibility to compare regional quality, processing methods, or compliance standards, even if Thailand is the most represented — it’s not the only option for sourcing.

Can these suppliers be trusted?
8 of 10 suppliers are verified, at least three in four, so the badge is worth checking before contacting anyone. 5 of 10 list a certificate, and HALAL is the most held, by 1 of them. For a shipment that requires HALAL certification, filtering for that standard narrows the list to suppliers who hold it. For any other requirement, ask each shortlisted supplier for the certificate up front.

Trade terms and how to compare quotations
A reference for every category: what the usual trade and payment terms mean, and the points to check when you compare quotations.
| Term | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EXW | Incoterm | The buyer collects the goods at the seller's premises and pays every cost from there. |
| FCA | Incoterm | The seller hands the goods, cleared for export, to the buyer's carrier at a named place. |
| FOB | Incoterm | The seller loads the goods on the vessel at the port of loading; freight is the buyer's. |
| CFR | Incoterm | The seller pays sea freight to the destination port; the risk passes once loaded. |
| CIF | Incoterm | Like CFR, and the seller also insures the goods until the destination port. |
| CPT | Incoterm | The seller pays carriage to a named place; the risk passes at the first carrier. |
| CIP | Incoterm | Like CPT, and the seller also insures the goods to the named place. |
| DAP | Incoterm | The seller delivers to a named place, ready for unloading; import duties are the buyer's. |
| DPU | Incoterm | The seller delivers and unloads the goods at a named place in the destination country. |
| DDP | Incoterm | The seller delivers to the buyer's place and pays import duties and taxes too. |
| FAS | Incoterm | The seller places the goods alongside the vessel at the port of loading. |

Name the Incoterm with a place, and agree it and the payment term in writing before production starts.
| Point | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Incoterm and place | Every quotation names the same Incoterm and port or place. | Prices on FOB and on CIF differ by the freight and the insurance. |
| Specification | The grade, size or composition quoted matches the one asked for. | A lower grade can hide behind a lower price. |
| Quantity and MOQ | The price is for the quantity ordered, above the minimum order. | Unit prices change with the order size. |
| Packaging | Packing type, size and labelling are stated and the same. | Custom packing adds cost. |
| Payment term | The payment term and the deposit asked. | It moves the risk between buyer and seller. |
| Lead time | The production and shipping time to the destination. | A late shipment can cost more than a higher price. |
| Documents | The certificates and export documents included. | Missing papers can block customs. |
| Validity | How long the quoted price holds. | Quotations are often valid for a limited time only. |
Ask every counterpart to quote on the same basis: only then does the lower price win.
