The People’s Committee of central Khanh Hoa province has approved a programme on developing sustainable and highly competitive aquatic products.
Accordingly, local businesses will invest in enhancing the quality of products, so that by 2015, 100 percent of local aquatic products meet national standards for food safety and environmental protection, as well as export markets’ requirements on products’ origin.
Khanh Hoa seafood sector will maintain traditional markets, especially the three key markets of Japan, the US and EU, while gaining entry into new promising markets such as ASEAN, the Republic of Korea, China, the Middle East, and South America.
The province sets the goal to increase total seafood export to over 63,000 tonnes, worth 406 million USD in 2015.
