Based on the culture area, the crustacean market can be segmented into inland waters and marine waters. The marine waters segment accounted for largest share in global crustacean market in 2016. The natural ocean conditions in marine areas are conducive for product growth. Countries including Australia and Thailand are home for shrimp and crab farming. However, periodic high currents affect product population in marine environment. Accordingly, aquaculture farms use drugs for preventing diseases and algae growth in the culture areas, which also affects the product population considerably. Thus, government agencies such as MAFW (Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare) in India and FAF (Federal Agency for Fishery) in Russia are trying to promote sustainable farming practices in these areas.

In 2016, Asia Pacific, led the global crustacean market in terms of production and consumption. China is likely to lead the regional crustacean market by 2024, as the product is one of the most valued species family preferred in Asia Pacific, for consumption. Countries such as India, South Korea, China, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Singapore and Sri Lanka are biggest consumers of seafood in Asia Pacific, thus, anticipated to contribute in crustacean market growth. Asia Pacific is full of small scale product vendors, as they receive full support from government pertaining to aquaculture and fish farming. Due to drift in consumer preference for rich in quality seafood, domestic consumption is likely to witness a prominent growth over the forecast period.

The prominent market share contributors functional in industry are Seaview Crab Company, The Crab Company, Asmak, RDM Aquaculture, Ichiboshi, International Fish Farming and Holding Company and Surapon Foods, Normad Foods, Norway Royal Salmon, AquaChile, Russian Aquaculture, Findus Group, Nireus Aquaculture, Beijing Princess Seafood and Mogster Group.

The product vendors, both international and regional, are intensifying the competition, by competing on the basis of portfolio, pricing and product differentiation.

Small crab farmers, medium level domestic crab farmers & fisheries are also trying to enter the crustacean market.
