Tridge summary
Earlier, due to concerns about radioactive contamination in August, related transportation was temporarily halted.
Currently, seven batches of containers carrying 106 tons of shrimp, valued at 1.22 million U.S. dollars, have passed inspection through the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) "yellow sheet" procedure, clearing the way for the resumption of trade. The Indonesian government plans to export up to 200 containers of Indonesian shrimp in the near future.
The approved export containers will be shipped to several major U.S. ports, including New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and Jacksonville.
The Indonesian Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries is continuously strengthening strict oversight of shrimp processing plants, and currently, samples from over 100 containers are still awaiting laboratory test results from the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN).
The Ministry estimates that the resumption of shrimp exports will help achieve the annual target of 6.25 billion U.S. dollars in fishery exports.
From January to September this year, Indonesia's total fishery exports amounted to 4.52 billion U.S. dollars, with shrimp exports reaching 1.39 billion U.S. dollars, maintaining the top position in the industry. The U.S. market accounts for 63.1% of Indonesia's shrimp exports, with exports to the U.S. increasing by 16.3% year-on-year in the first nine months of this year, and by 16.6% in September alone.
