The US Department of Commerce (DOC) has ruled a joint venture between US-based Red Chamber and a Chinese partner sold shrimp at less than fair value over the course of two years, and is liable for antidumping duties, according to the Southern Shrimp Alliance (SSA), a group representing the US wild shrimp sector.
DOC's review of the company's sales during 2017 and 2018 found that Chinese firm Shantou Red Garden Food Processing, also known as Red Garden, was ineligible for an exemption from antidumping duties for several years.
