Mr. Tan Nang stated that Tra fish demand in EU was highly increasing due to the approach of Christmas and New Year’s Day. However, the customers in this area and Middle East market has often inquired too low prices. Therefore, in August 2009, export value of the company “equally spread” to such markets as Spain, England, Germany, Holland, ect. but was not higher than that of previous months.
Despite of making effort, Bianfishco only operates two third of process capacity now; due to it has to take much time for the workers to produce high quality products.
According to the plan of August 2009, Bianfishco will export 70 - 80 containers of Tra fish to the U.S., but only over 50 containers has been exported to this area this year.
In Semtember 2009, besides standing with export to EU market, Bianfishco has continued “intensifying” to the U.S. market and made plan for increase in total Tra fish export to 30 markets reached 2,570 MT.
