The company has taken a leadership role in changing this trend in addition to being the first producer of organic shrimp. Primar faced making this shift or going out of business several years ago when the price for conventional shrimp dropped. Because of the company&#39;s small size, it was flexible enough to quickly make this transition and adapt to new market signals.<p>&nbsp;</p><br class="clear" /><p><a href="http://www.nextbillion.net/blogs/2006/07/06/its-hard-out-here-for-a-shrimp">read more</a></p> http://www.nextbillion.net/blogs/2006/07/06/its-hard-out-here-for-a-shrimp#comment Agriculture Successful Models Thu, 06 Jul 2006 18:00:28 -0400 Derek Newberry 2981 at http://www.nextbillion.net
