Significant Packaging Improvements and Streamlined Ordering
DALLAS — Natural Shrimp, Inc. (OTCQB: SHMP), a Biotechnology Aquaculture Company that has developed and patented the first shrimp-focused commercially operational RAS (Recirculating Aquaculture System), announces that it has launched its online ordering home delivery website at www.naturalshrimpharvest-select.com, including a new dedicated fulfilment center with an upgraded ordering process.
The program and e-commerce website pilot was successfully launched in December 2022 and was met with strong demand. This has allowed Natural Shrimp to conduct research, understand market demand, and gather feedback to proactively implement improvements before fully launching to the public. From this feedback, the web development team implemented UX/UI (user experience/user information) improvements and the fulfillment team implemented a Question/Answer process. This process has resulted in improved packaging to make it sturdier and more reliable and expanded our shipping policy.
With the feedback we have received, our Director of E-commerce, Douwe Iedema, has made and incorporated these changes and improvements into the E-commerce process. Based on customer feedback, we have switched to using biodegradable trays. Each of these trays will hold one pound of “heads-off” shrimp with each tray having an absorption pad to soak up any stray moisture. The shrimp is then vacuumed sealed to guarantee freshness. To be able to be more competitive, an order now will include five trays each with one pound of heads-off shrimp for a total of five pounds of vacuumed sealed shrimp.
In addition to increasing the number of pounds of shrimp per order, Natural Shrimp Harvest-Select will be offering many new specials such as adding a free pound of shrimp. These specials will be offered through our Meta-ad campaign, newsletters and posted on our Facebook page. Keep your eyes open for special offerings from www.naturalshrimpharvest-select.com. Lastly, we have received many requests for an opportunity to just pick up shrimp at a convenient location and time and avoid the high cost of shipment. As a result of these requests, we have decided to implement a new “Pick Up Option” procedure. Currently we plan to offer one day per week pending the demand for this option. Clearly, our loyal purchasers will save on shipping costs as well as packaging and handling costs.
