Salmon Prices Decreasing in Indonesia Due to Slow Demand

Due to the slow demand, some Indonesian traders have been selling salmon at breakeven prices. The estimates from several importers still have about 50-100 MT of salmon left in cold storages and they are not selling it fast enough. The average salmon fillet was about USD 14-15/kg. In mid-August salmon, salmon fillet prices are sold at similar or lower prices, at a loss. Importers began to look for cheaper alternatives in order to gain a profit or lessen the loss.
