Thuan Phuoc Corp’s General Director, Mr. Tran Van Linh said in the first eight months of this year, the company earned US$21 million from seafood exports, an 8 percent increase against the same period last year.
In August alone, Thuan Phuoc Corp shipped 725MT of shrimp, squid and marine fish for a value of US$4.3 million, equivalent to the same period last year, of which shrimp accounted for 98 percent of its seafood export volume.
From January to August, Thuan Phuoc Corp kept on exporting to such major markets as Japan, South Korea, EU, and the U.S. The EU remained its largest customer, importing 54 percent of the company’s total seafood volume.
It is now the time for the second shrimp harvest in Central provinces of Viet Nam. If the weather is fine, the harvest will last until October, partly easing difficulties regarding material sources.
From now to the end of the year, Thuan Phuoc Corp will gradually increase the volume of value-added-products, and strive to earn more than US$35 million from seafood exports in 2009.
