Fish Export

Fish Export

Fish export" refers to the act of selling and shipping fish caught or farmed in one country to another country for consumption, essentially meaning a business or individual is exporting fish products across international borders to generate revenue; this can include fresh, chilled, frozen, dried, or processed fish depending on the market demand and regulations involved. 

Product variety:
Exported fish products can include whole fish, fillets, seafood delicacies, fish meal, fish oil, and even live ornamental fish. 

Regulations:
Strict quality control, hygiene standards, and export documentation are necessary to comply with importing country regulations. 


Market factors:
Factors like species availability, market demand, price fluctuations, and transportation logistics influence the fish export industry.
 

Fish packaging can vary depending on the type of fish, whether it's fresh or frozen, and the desired method of preservation: 

Vacuum packaging: Removes air from the packaging to create a vacuum-sealed environment that helps preserve the fish's freshness, quality, and shelf life. 

Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP): Involves packaging fish in a gas mixture to extend its shelf life. 
Frozen fish packaging: Often uses polyethylene bags or wraps, waxed duplex cartons, or polystyrene trays. 


Fresh fish packaging: Can include packing fish in ice, placing it on trays, or sealing it in bags or pouches. 

Canned fish: A long-used method to preserve processed fish, such as tuna, salmon, and sardines. 

Stand-up pouches: Can be convenient and reduce packaging costs. 

Multi-layer films: Create a tight seal to keep fish fresh and protect the package from punctures. 
Individually quick frozen (IQF) packaging: Often used for frozen fish fillets and other frozen seafood products.
