(VOV) - Tra fish fillet exports to China and Hong Kong have skyrocketed in the first eight months of this year, said the Vietnam Tra Fish Association (VTFA) at a press briefing in Can Tho on October 8.
The VTFA reported that tra fish exports to these markets jumped nearly 50% to US$100 million.

Meanwhile, total tra fish export value dipped 9.1%. Exports to key markets all saw a decline, for example the EU down 18.2% to US$192 million and the US down 1.7% to US$208 million due to stricter technical barriers.
In order to boost exports, the VTFA has launched an e-commerce project at www.mekongfishmarket.com, which provides information about businesses, products, standard processing factories, and material zones.
