Grobest Vietnam’s shrimp feed upgrades aim to support farmers

The upgrades

Grobest Vietnam stated that it will proactively upgrade its entire product range. Core product lines such as Lead, Nice, Vannamei and Eco, which have been improved, have demonstrated superior performance in actual farming operations.

With technical support from Grobest and the trio of Gold Shield, Super Shield and Lead, the shrimp harvest at Luu Chi Cong’s shrimp farm in Bac Lieu yielded USD 115,000, with shrimp size reaching 27 per kg, FCR at 1.27, and costs at USD 3.10 per kg. This success marks the fourth consecutive year that Mr Cong has achieved high-yield shrimp farming thanks to Grobest’s support.

Similarly, in Ca Mau, Huynh Vu Linh’s shrimp farm reported a profit of USD 50,000, with shrimp sizes ranging from 18.7-25 per kg and an average daily growth rate of 0.36-0.37, thanks to the application of the process and products of Gold Shield, Vista Eco and Lead.

Building on this impressive track record, Tran Hoang On’s Grofarm PRO model in Bac Lieu further validates the success of the Grobest solution. The first farming cycle of 2025, spanning 11 ponds, yielded 62 tons of production and generated a profit of USD 134,000. In the second season, he continued to release 5 million shrimp larvae in May and maintained effectiveness with Gold Shield and Lead.

Meeting ASC standards

In another development, Grobest Vietnam announced that it has received the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) certification, making the company the first in Vietnam and the 10th global receiving the prestigious international standard for aquatic feed manufacturers.

This achievement is a milestone affirming Grobest’s pioneering position in the journey of providing high-quality, transparent and responsible aquafeed, accompanying farmers in a more sustainable and professional direction.

The certification ensures:

• ✅ the input source is carefully selected and is responsible for the environment and the community.
• ✅ transparent production process and strict management according to international standards
• ✅ minimize negative impact on the environment that contributes to the protection of aquaculture ecosystems.

By October 31, 2025, shrimp farms that want to enter high-end markets will be required to switch to using feed from ASC-standard plants. This shows that ASC certification is not only a trend, but will become a mandatory requirement in the global value chain. As such, Grobest is ready to accompany and support farmers to convert promptly and effectively.
