In 2023, China experienced a significant increase in whole fresh Atlantic salmon imports, with volume rising by 63% to over 80,000 tonnes and value increasing by 44% to $1.03 billion compared to the previous year. This growth makes the first quarter of 2023 a record one for salmon imports in China. The consumer demographic for salmon is largely the younger generation, especially married women in southern China. Despite the high value of these imports, China's per capita salmon consumption remains low at 0.06 kilograms, indicating room for market growth. There is a surge in the production and development of salmon-based products by companies like Dalian Rich Group and Hollywin Seafood. Norway, Chile, Australia, the UK, and Iceland were the primary suppliers of fresh Atlantic salmon to China in 2023. Additionally, China exported 56,900 tonnes of frozen Pacific salmon fillets in 2022, with the US being the largest supplier.
