2010 Trade summary

Summary

UK exports continue double digit growth for the second consecutive year. The global seafood markets are in flux, resulting in changes in traditional import/export dynamics. Emerging markets such as Russia, Brazil, Mexico, Middle East & West Africa, are beginning to displace EU, USA and Japan as the principal seafood markets. 2010 saw strong demand, and limited supply driving prices of the most popular UK consumed species; including salmon, WWP and tuna.
