Abstract

The shrimp industry has established itself as a benchmark in global trade to its high-quality production, sustainability, and the incorporation of innovative technologies in feed and biogenetics. However, it faces challenges such as unfair competition, dumping, and rising production costs, which impact its competitiveness in the international market. This study aims to analyze the impact of the threat of dumping on the competitiveness of the shrimp exporting industry in the province of Guayas. 2 A research was carried out with a quantitative approach and correlational design, applying surveys to producers and interviews with experts in the sector.The results show a correlation coefficient of 0.618 with a p-value of 0.008 < 0.05, confirming that the threat of dumping does impact the shrimp export industry. Therefore, it is essential to strengthen the industry through improvements in infrastructure, market diversification, and international certifications to ensure its sustainability.
