Norway's seafood export totaled $3.87 billion in the first four months
In April, the country exported 172,000 tons of seafood worth NOK 7.7 billion. The export volume is down 4%, while exports increased by NOK 847 million or 12%.
"High cod and haddock prices continue to help boost the value of Norwegian seafood. Despite a season of good weather, lower quotas have led to lower catches this year than last year. At the same time, more fresh whole skrei has been exported this year compared with last year, at elevated prices. This means that we have achieved an export record for skrei with a value of almost NOK 200 million. These are the fruits of long-term work between several actors to establish the stage for skrei as a high-quality product in the markets. Spain is a spearhead importer and we also see that skrei is starting to be adopted by French consumers”, says Ingrid Kristine Pettersen, Analyst at the Norwegian Seafood Council.
