In the first seven months of 2024, Russian fishermen supplied 73 thousand tons of frozen pollock to South Korea, making up 98.1% of the country's imports of this product. The United States and other countries contributed 1.7% and 0.2%, respectively. Despite a 12.9% drop in import volume and a 17.2% decrease in value compared to the same period in 2023, there is potential to increase the value of Russian exports by focusing on high-margin products like pollock fillets and mince. Currently, Russian exports of these products face a 10% import duty in South Korea, while the United States enjoys a zero import duty under a free trade agreement. To boost competitiveness, it is essential to remove barriers to the production and export of Russian deeply processed pollock products.

The potential for increasing the value of Russian exports lies in increasing the share of high-margin products. While almost all frozen pollock is imported to South Korea from Russia, supplies of pollock fillets and mince, including surimi, accounted for only about half of Korean imports of this product. During this period, 16.1 thousand tons of pollock fillets and mince (58.3%) were supplied to South Korea from Russia ...
