A significant milestone has been reached in the revival of the China-Australia lobster trade, with the delivery of the first batch of Australian rock lobsters from South Australia to China via a direct flight operated by China Eastern Airlines on December 28. This event, marked by the presence of the Australian Consulate General in Shanghai and the South Australian government, indicates the successful resumption of trade following a pause since the end of 2020. The 195 boxes containing approximately 4 tons of lobsters, known for their high quality, were imported by China Eastern Airlines Cold Chain and sold out promptly upon arrival in Shanghai. This development signifies a crucial step in reinoring a crucial trade connection between China and Australia, allowing more Chinese consumers to enjoy fresh Australian lobsters in the upcoming holidays.
