Blue Swimming Crab Supply Shortage From Bahrian & Tunisia in Southeast Asia During Apr-24

The ongoing catching ban period for Blue Swimming Crab in Bahrain has affected the supply in Southeast Asian markets like Taiwan and Thailand. There is high demand for the big-sized crabs (200+ grams) as the buyers remain over-stocked for the smaller sizes. Moreover, the crab landing in Tunisia has also been adversely affected by windy weather conditions and Ramadan season in Mar-24 and Apr-24. Since March, most landings have been of smaller sizes. Due to this shortage of big-size crabs, the buyers are unable to place orders, and the supply is increasing with suppliers. The supply conditions are expected to improve on May-24 after the ban period ends in Bahrain. The market can expect a temporary price drop from Tunisia until the landing pattern improves for the bigger sizes.

Tunisian Seafood Exporters Temporarily Suspend Production on January 4, 2024 Amidst Low Blue Swimming Crab Landings and Soaring Freight Costs

Tunisian seafood exporters are temporarily suspending production on January 4, 2024, due to low Blue swimming crab landings in the winter season, causing increased purchase prices. The Red Sea conflict involving Yemen has significantly increased both low temperatures and freight costs for shipments from Tunisia to Asian countries. Exporters plan to resume production in late January 2024, but high freight costs may keep prices high until the situation improves.

Shift in Landing Ratio for Tunisia-Origin Blue Swimming Crabs in Dec-23 Leads to Higher Prices

In the winter season in Dec-23, there has been a shift in the male/female landing ratio for Tunisia-origin blue swimming crabs compared to previous years. The landing trend indicates a higher proportion of smaller-size females (80/100 and 100/150), while the larger sizes (150/200 and 200 up) are experiencing limited female landings. In response to the increased demand from Southeast Asian countries during the winter season, mainly due to the high egg ratio in female Blue Swimming Crabs, the Cost and Freight (CFR) prices at Southeast Asian ports have increased. The prices for Blue Swimming Crabs-Females have risen from USD 2.75 to 4.10/kg in Nov-23 to USD 2.90 to 4.30/kg in Dec-23.
