The Snapshot: Industry Benchmark on Decapod Crustacean Welfare
In 2022, Crustacean Compassion created the UK’s first industry benchmark, which assesses 30 leading seafood producers, processors, and retailers on their management and reporting of decapod crustacean welfare.
Now in its third year, The Snapshot helps businesses improve welfare standards from harvest and capture through to storage and slaughter, leading to benefits for industry, seafood consumers, and decapods such as crabs, lobsters, prawns, and nephrops (langoustines).

The third edition, published in March 2025 now provides the latest updates as part of an ongoing review into decapod crustacean welfare throughout the food industry.
