European Trader Meets Wild Shrimp SIMP Requirements Using Trace Register Platform

Importing shrimp into the U.S. requires SIMP compliance and filing in the ACE portal. To pass audits, traders must provide detailed documentation on fishing, first receiver, processing, and re-processing.

The trader’s suppliers lacked traceability systems and only provided raw data. Using Trace Register’s CTE Templates, the trading company can now record critical tracking events and recreate complete supply chains that meet GDST and SIMP requirements. Master data for vessels, processors, and products is linked to attachments, such as harvest records and HACCP plans. 

What once took hours now takes under 15 minutes—reducing errors, saving time, and improving traceability.
