Vietnam's pangasius exports are projected to reach $2.2 billion by October, marking the fastest growth among Vietnam's seafood export industry groups. The US and China are the largest markets, accounting for 23% and 30% of exports respectively. The US import of over 104,000 tons of frozen pangasius fillets, worth over $445 million, is up 24% in volume and 91% in value from last year. The average price of frozen pangasius fillets in the US market has increased by 53% over the same period. The 'Zero Covid' policy in China has led to a lack of food and seafood, resulting in a 110% increase in pangasius exports to China. With the favorable tariffs and geographical location, Vietnam has also increased pangasius exports to CPTPP markets and some Asian countries.
