The Ministry of Trade and Industry reported this Friday that some 37.4 tons of red shrimp they were shipped to the port of Xingang, near Beijing, the capital of China.
This export took place this week and was carried out by Cosmo Fish from Herrera.
Eric Dormoi, The National Director of Export Promotion of the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MICI), emphasized that this shipment is the first that a Panama company has made with this item.
About 1,941 boxes of frozen shrimp were transported through two containers.
The export was made according to the parameters used by the food industry, explained Dormoi.
“Congratulations Cosmopolitan Enterprises/Cosmo Fish for this announcementand we invite them to continue presenting a high-quality export offer on the international market,” added Dormoi.
In this regard, the official emphasized that although the country already had two plants officially approved for seafood exports by China, there have been no exports so far, which is excellent news.
The total export of shrimp in 2022 showed an exceptional increase, positioning itself as the fourth most exported item in the country according to the figures provided by the Chief Inspector of the Republic (CGR).
Figures show that last year the item reached a FOB value of B/. 67.9 million, with a growth of 127.9% compared to 2021.
With this, they managed to reach countries such as Taiwan, the United States of America, Spain, Italy, Denmark, France, Belgium, Costa Rica, Albania, Bahamas and Morocco.
