We have been producing "Maya Larva", beautiful, healthy, top performing post larvae (baby shrimp) for both our own farms and an important part of the shrimp industry of Guatemala and other countries, for over 20 years now.  

  

Our post larvae comes from carefully managed genetic programs with our top genetic lines (F20's), that we have been optimizing for over 20 years, for conditions of growth and resistance among others, for our specialized, intensive aquaculture systems, characteristic of Guatemala's shrimp industry.

​

Top R&D programs/infrastructure and genetic family lines together with an exceptional and highly committed team, make La Candelaria Hatchery, one of the most advanced and efficient today in the Latin American region!
