An agreement on the price of shrimp has been reached. The Fish Food and Allied Workers Union and the Association of Seafood Producers agreed the price of shrimp for the 2024 fishing season; spring, summer and fall fisheries will all be under one price agreement of $1.36/lb. There is a $0.04/lb premium for gulf shrimp, and there will be no trucking fees for shrimp landing in St. Anthony and Port aux Choix/Port Saunders.
