The UK and Norway are two of the main sourcing markets for brown crab, along with Ireland. Currently, brown crab is in its mid-season, and the prices from both markets are slightly different, mainly because of the availability of wild stocks and fishing campaigns. Prices of vacuum-packed, cooked, and frozen brown crab from the UK (especially Northern Ireland and Scotland) are approximately USD 8.73/kg and USD 8.94/kg for sizes 400/600 and 600/800, respectively, delivered in Europe. Norwegian suppliers are doing more bulk packing instead of vacuum packing as the price is usually higher by USD 0.21–0.32/kg, with prices delivered in Europe of USD 8.52/kg for sizes 400/600, USD 8.83/kg for sizes 600/800, and USD 9.05/kg for sizes 800+.
