SwissShrimp brings blue, crunchy pleasure to the plate.
The words sustainability, quality and local are becoming more and more important in our kitchens. If you love crustaceans, but don’t want to do without the aforementioned, Swisshrimps is the right address for you.
A lot of time and money was invested to get this exciting project up and running. In 2008 the entrepreneurs Thomas Tschirren, Michael Siragusa, Rafael Waber, Daniel Gfeller and Jean-Claude Cattin have been working on this start-up which is now an established company in Rheinfelden, where the Swissshrimps are grown in an ecological aquaculture. The pilot project started in Luterbach in the canton of Solothurn and was very promising. The salt for the water treatment naturally comes from close by, the Swiss Rhine saltworks.

Responsible behavior is very important! From the rearing, through logistics to recycling of packaging, the young entrepreneurs rely on careful treatment of animals and the environment. The word food waste also plays an important role here, customers can order online and so freshness is put first. It is only caught when an order has been received. The delicacies are quickly delivered to private customers in a reusable fresh box.
