JCS Shrimps

About Us

JCS Shrimps traces its origins back to 1980s in Singapore, where Mr. and Mrs. Lee operated a market stall in Chinatown, providing the community with fresh pork daily. However, the outbreak of the Nipah virus brought an abrupt halt to the import of live pigs into Singapore, forcing the Lees to rethink their future.
In a bold move, they pivoted their business focus to cold storage solutions, marking the birth of Jurong Cold Store (JCS). By 1996, JCS had built its first warehouse, quickly expanding to become a leader in automated cold chain logistics, with one of Singapore’s first Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS), and a capacity of holding storage for 2000 pallets.
In 2001, Mr. Lee expanded into aquaculture, establishing a fully integrated shrimp farm in Indonesia. Spanning 400 hectares and featuring hatcheries, grow-out ponds, and a processing facility, this exemplifies JCS Shrimps’ commitment to every step of the shrimp production process. For 16 years, Mr. Lee personally oversaw farm operations, ensuring that every shrimp harvested met the highest standards of freshness and quality.
Today, JCS Shrimps is Singapore’s first vertically integrated shrimp provider, supplying 7,000 tonnes of premium frozen shrimp annually. Its logistics capabilities are unmatched, with direct shipping via dedicated reefer vessels and state-of-the-art cold chain management, ensuring that every product delivered is as fresh as the moment it was harvested. Embracing sustainability and bringing the freshest seafood from farm to table.
