South Carolina shrimpers release genetic tests revealing widespread mislabeling of imported shrimp as local, threatening fair competition and pushing for mandatory origin labeling.
South Carolina shrimping advocates are set to release new genetic test results next week on shrimp served at Lowcountry restaurants, following a prior study that found most restaurants falsely labeled imported shrimp as local.
The testing, led by SeaD Consulting with support from industry groups, targets half of the restaurants from the earlier report.
Advocates say mislabeling harms local shrimpers by allowing cheaper imports to be sold as local, undermining sustainable practices and fair competition.
The findings could prompt calls for state laws requiring country-of-origin menu labeling, similar to those in Louisiana and Texas, to improve transparency and support the struggling local fishing industry.
