Simply put it is critical that you (your client) become competent in understanding:

- what constitutes a good quality shrimp that is safe for human consumption
- how to identify and measure the above
- how to ensure the shrimp stay safe and fit for human consumption throughout the processing and delivery process

It is not possible to get this competence easily. You either need the advice of an expert to tell you in detail what and how to achieve the above or you need to develop the competence in house.

Below are some excellent resources and articles related to your query.

Most (all?) customers and regulatory authorities will say yes.
