Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the excellent quality of the products, noting that the shrimp arrive healthy, vibrant, and exactly as described. The delivery service is frequently highlighted for its speed and efficiency, with many reviewers receiving their orders promptly and securely packaged. People also appreciate the exceptional service, finding the team responsive and helpful with inquiries, and often receiving extra shrimp as a bonus. However, some customers experienced issues with communication regarding tracking information, feeling that they were left guessing about delivery times. A few also found the packaging to be excessively taped, making it difficult to open without potentially harming the contents. There were also isolated instances of orders not being received, though this was sometimes attributed to the postal service.

Absolutely Fantastic customer service!

After royal mail lost my previous order , James from the shrimp factory did everything within his power , from tracking , to timing dispatch to when suited me, to following up, all to make sure the order arrived and I was satisfied.

You'd struggle to find better customer service.

Thank you James

Outstanding Quality/Delivery/Customer service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Absolutely blown away by the service from Shrimp Factory UK 🤯. The quality of the shrimp I received was genuinely mind-blowing—healthy, vibrant, and clearly well cared for.

Delivery was incredibly fast (arrived within 16 hours), and everything was packaged to perfection. Each item was securely packed, clearly labeled, and arrived in flawless condition.

What really stood out, though, was the support. I spent quite some time chatting with them, and they went above and beyond—offering detailed advice on nutrition, genetics, and shrimp keeping/breeding in general.

Truly an outstanding company. Highly recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Honestly 10/10 service

Honestly 10/10 service.
Orders shipped really quickly and the shrimps arrive so safe in their packaging. Lost 1 of 20 but looks like it was trying to shed in the bag and got stuck.
However we did get sent a few extras which we are really grateful for and my little shrimp tank looks amazing! Thank you so much! Will definitely be ordering again!

I have bought from Shrimp factory twice…

I have bought from Shrimp factory twice now and will definitely use again in the future.
All shrimp have arrived well and healthy.
All items are well packed and it is clear they took care when choosing which shrimp to ship.
Using moulded polystyrene boxes meant the shrimp were protected from any bumps during the journey.

Excellent

Excellent! That is all. No seriously this is how you ship live animals like shrimp. No losses and shrimp thriving 48hrs later.

Easy order online and great experience.

Easy order online and arrived on time. I like that the seller doesn't post on weekends, so the shrimp don't hang around a sorting office. I ordered 2 shrimp online and still got an extra one. Many thanks, great experience.
