Vietnamese shrimp exports up more than 50%

The export value of shrimp and prawns in the first half of July increased by 31.4 per cent year on year to reach $166.1 million


HA NOI (VNS) — The total export value of Vietnamese shrimp and prawns increased by 59 per cent to reach US$1.96 billion between January 1 and July 15 this year.

According to the general department of customs, the export value of shrimp and prawns in the first half of July increased by 31.4 per cent year on year to reach $166.1 million.

Between January and mid-July, the export value of white-leg shrimp accounted for 59.5 per cent of the total export value of $1.165 billion, while the export value of tiger prawns was $660 million, said the customs department.

The three largest export markets for Vietnamese shrimp and prawn were Japan, the US and the EU, with Japan being the largest.

However, in the first half of July, the strongest growth in export value year over year — between 100 per cent and 298 per cent — were in exports to the Netherlands, South Korea and the US.

The total value was expected to exceed $2 billion for the period between January and the end of July, the general department of customs said.

Truong Dinh Hoe, general secretary of the Viet Nam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers, said the association expects Viet Nam to gain $3.5 billion from exporting shrimp and prawns this year, compared to $3 billion last year, reported the Thoi bao Kinh te Viet Nam (Vietnam Economic Times )newspaper. This is because the export of Vietnamese shrimp and prawns increased in quantity, value and demand in the first half of this year.

Meanwhile, Viet Nam has stable supplies of these products till the end of this year, compared to the low supplies from China and Thailand, two large producers of shrimp in the world. — VNS

Vietnam’s 1st catch of tuna fished with Japanese technology sells out in Japan

The first batch of tuna caught by fishermen in the central Vietnamese province of Binh Dinh using Japanese technology was sold out on Friday at an auction in the central fish market of Osaka City in Japan, according to the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development.

With an average quote of 1,200 Japanese yen (US$11.76) per kilogram, the price of the nine tuna caught by two fishermen – Nguyen Que and La Tinh residing in Hoai Nhon District – was about three to four times higher than their current local price of around VND60,000-80,000 ($2.82-3.76) per kilogram.

Of the nine fish weighing 448 kilograms in total, one was bought at 2,100 Japanese yen ($20.58) per kilogram. Another sold for only 250 Japanese yen ($2.45) per kilogram because as it had below-par quality, according to the department.

Domestic tuna prices hit the lowest rate of VND35,000-50,000 ($1.17-2.35) per kilogram in May this year due to surplus supply.

The price was low partly because almost all tuna sold locally were hunted using traditional methods which reduce the quality of the fish when they came ashore.

According to Japanese experts, the quality of Vietnam’s first batch of tuna is not different from the same kind of tuna sold in the Japanese market. If Binh Dinh fishermen continue to adapt and overcome some of the limitations in hunting, processing, and preserving to ensure better tuna quality, the selling prices will be higher, they said.

On August 6, three fishing boats of Binh Dinh fishermen who used Japanese technology and equipment for tuna hunting docked at a port in the provincial capital city of Quy Nhon with 37 tunas, of which nine with the best quality were picked by Kato Hitoshi General Office (Kato Office), a Japanese importer, for shipping to Japan for the auction.

The batch were transported to Ho Chi Minh City and shipped to the East Asian country from Tan Son Nhat International Arport later the same day.

Kato Office and Binh Dinh Fishery Joint Stock Company (Bidifisco) on Tuesday signed a contract enabling the latter to export tuna caught by local fishermen using Japanese technology to Japan via the former.

The deal makes Kato Office a Bidifisco representative in Japan, which will put Binh Dinh tuna on sale at the auction centers and seafood store chains of Kato Office’s partners in Japan.

Before that, Bidifisco had signed agreements with the owners of five Vietnamese fishing vessels on a pilot project to apply Japanese technology in fishing and storing tuna for export to Japan.

Accordingly, after local fishermen sell their products to Bidifisco, all of them will be shipped to Japan through Kato Office against Japanese standards.

From late July to early August 2014, the vessels caught 54 tuna, with an average weight of 40-50 kilograms each.

Just bcz JP food safety standards r very high, thats why sometime VN fish fail to meet the standard. But its still a safe product with China-VN food standards.

Just like VN litchi can export a lot to China, VNese also eat alot, but its still failed with JP food safety standards, so we can not export to JP.

Bcz many VNese use their fish pond as toilet, so the fish have fish human feces. VNese still eat this kind of fish and export to China too.

In VN , human feces can be used as fertilizers to grow rice too

This is the fish pond, and its a toilet ,too

frozen fish, only packed in Vietnam. So there's an internal ruining the reputation of the factory.
Anyway, the company was in the black list.

A Yamaguchi-based importer has started a voluntary recall of the product, the prefecture said, adding that no health problems have been reported even though the product was shipped to Tokyo and nine other prefectures.

Subject to the recall are packages of frozen Icelandic capelin seasoned and packed in Vietnam by a company called Rich Beauty Food Co., according to the government.
