that can affect product quality improvement. Improving the quality of
frozen shrimp products by comparing the basic unit and system
evaluations based on the HACCP concept. Meanwhile, the frozen
shrimp food safety strategy is to pay attention to Critical Control Points
(CCP) to ensure food quality and safety to remain safe. The results
show that the production of frozen shrimp products requires Critical
Control Points (CCP) control to create quality and food-safety of frozen
shrimp that are safe for consumers.
Key Words: Food safety, Frozen shrimp, HACCP, GMP

1 INTRODUCTION
Prawn has a great contribution to the fisheries sector. Shrimp and
Prawn caught from inland water bodies were 28.99 Metric tons (MT)
in 2009-10. The fishery export earning stood at US$ 477 million in
2008-09 financial years by exporting 72,888 MT Shrimp and other
fishery products. Shrimp alone contributed 85% of the total export
despite severe price fluctuations in the international market.
Macrobrachiumrosenbergii is a perishable product and needs quick
storage, but long-time storage may lose the quality of the product.
Prawn is a valuable exportable product in our country. Spoilage of any
food product is attributed to microbial growth due to improper handling,
inadequate processing, and frozen storage. Prawn products of
Indonesia face many qualities control challenges throughout the
product range particularly in export markets. The lack of proper
freezing, quality management and modern technological investments
during processing, distribution, and storage, especially the insufficient
application of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP),
continues to lead to hazardous infection in final products. The EU has
rejected several shrimp consignments from Indonesia because the
products were found to have metabolites of banned nitrofurans and
other health hazardous chemicals contaminants. This incident
undoubtedly affected the image of Indonesia's frozen foods and
threatened up growing international export market along with
economic severe setbacks to the concerned exporters; the nature of
