In the US market, in the first 6 months of 2020, Vietnamese shrimp has a competitive advantage over rival supplies thanks to faster production stability after COVID-19 while other suppliers such as India and Ecuador were still under a heavy impact. Shrimp processors and exporters of India and Ecuador were not only affected by decreasing orders but also domestic production was delayed due to the shutdown rule, lack of workers in factories as they were not working for fear of infection.

Indian shrimp exports to the US in May 2020 reached 8,560 MT, worth $72.1 million, down 58% in volume and 56% in value compared to May 2019.
Ecuador was still the third-largest supplier of shrimp to the US. In May 2020, exports to the US reached 5,773 MT of shrimp, worth US$33.6 million, down 25% in volume and 32% in value compared to May 2019.
With the advantage of low anti-dumping tax, Vietnam's shrimp exports to the US in the whole of 2020 are forecasted to increase by about 20% compared to 2019.
