The Viet Nam Pangasius Expo, held by the Vietnamese Embassy in Australia, has offered Australian visitors 100 virtual stalls of Vietnamese processed tra and basa (Pangasius) fish products.

Overseas shipments of tra fish (pangasius) are expected to bring about US$1.54 billion in revenue this year, said Le Hang, deputy head of the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP)’s training and promotion centre.

VOV.VN - Vietnam raked in US$47.44 million from exporting tra fish (pangasius) to Brazil by mid-October, representing an increase of over 1.5 times against the same period from last year, according to the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP).

VOV.VN - Vietnamese fisheries exports in October soared by 47% to US$918 million compared to the previous month, a figure nearly equivalent to the same period from last year, according to statistics released on November 8 by the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP).

VOV.VN - Vietnam’s seafood exports to the United States saw a year-on-year rise of 24% to US$1.45 billion during the opening nine months of the year, according to the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP).

VOV.VN - Despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, Vietnamese Tra fish (pangasius) exports hit US$1.07 billion in the opening nine months of the year, up 3.2% compared to the same period from last year.

The growth of processed seafood output in Vietnam will reach over 6% a year by 2030 under a national seafood processing development strategy for 2021-2030 which has been approved by the Prime Minister.

The US Department of Commerce (DOC) has announced the preliminary results of the 17th period of review (POR17) for the period from August 1, 2019 to July 31, 2020, regarding Vietnam’s tra and basa fish (pangasius) exported to the US.

Aquatic exports in the first half of August were strongly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, reaching only US$263.8 million, down 41% compared to the second half of July and 30.1% from the same period in 2020.

Vietnam’s aquatic export is hoped to hit US$9 billion in 2021 thanks to the recovery of consumption in key markets such as the US, the European Union (EU), and other potential markets.
