Initial statistics from VASEP showed that Vietnam’s total revenue from tra fish exports to mainland China and Hong Kong (China) reached US$385.9 million in the first 11 months of this year, accounting for 34.4% of Vietnam’s total revenue from tra fish exports.
The 11-month export revenue of tra fish to China decreased by 20.6% over the same period last year mainly due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The number of tra fish processing and exporting enterprises to China also accounts for the largest number of tra fish enterprises.
Vietnam exports a diverse range of tra fish products to the Chinese market including frozen fillet, frozen tra fish stomach, fried/dried fish bladder, frozen whole tra fish, frozen tra fish belly, among others.
VASEP said that since the end of the third quarter of 2020, the import of Vietnamese tra fish from some major markets has seen positive signals, helping to increase prices of raw tra fish materials.
