Tra fish exports to Brazil up 17.2%
Tra fish exports to Brazil soared by 17.2% to US$12.1 million in the first month of this year, according to the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (Vasep).
If the next few months are on an upward trajectory, the South American nation will overtake ASEAN to become the fourth largest importers of Vietnam tra fish behind the US, EU, Hong Kong (China).
Tra fish exporters to Brazil said high-quality tra fish products can have easier access to the increasingly lucrative market that imposes rigid quality requirements.
To boost exports to this market, Vietnamese businesses must be subject to stringent criteria under technical barriers and as a result, their tra fish products are able to compete with other white meat fish fillets in Brazil.
According to the statistics of the International Trade Centre (ICT), Vietnam and Argentina are the two major suppliers of white meat fish fillets for Brazil at present.
