According to the latest data from China Customs, the import value of Chinese seafood in the first quarter of 2020 was 22.8 billion, a decrease of 27% from the fourth quarter of 2019.
In 2019, imports of crustaceans may exceed imports of whole frozen fish. China ’s frozen fish imports are mainly used for re-exports, but imported crustaceans are mainly used for domestic consumption, which shows that with the expansion of China’s middle class, the future has great growth potential.
