    The white fish giant Russian Fisheries Corporation (RFC) significantly increased the production of its value-added pollock products in 2021, and at the same time achieved market diversification based on large pollock catches
    .
     
    By the end of 2021, RFC had captured more than 90% of the pollock quota, reaching 302,300 tons
    .
    The company's production of deep-processed sea frozen (FAS) cod products, including fish fillets, minced meat and surimi, increased by more than 50% over the previous year
    .

     
    In addition, RFC’s first super trawler, Vladimir Limanov, produced approximately 2,300 tons of surimi, which is a new pollock product that the company started this year
    .
     
    In 2021, RFC will continue to develop domestic and international sales markets through the production of value-added products
    .
    At the same time, the sales volume of deep-processed products in the domestic market has also increased by more than 70% over last year, and is supported by new contracts
    .

     
    In particular, it signed a long-term contract with the first fish processing plant to develop the sale of pollock fillets in the Russian market
    .
    It also signed the first batch of domestic surimi supply contracts with Lithuanian surimi giant Viciunai
    .

     
    Expand foreign markets
     
    In 2021, RFC has also made good progress in supplying pollock fillets to Chinese retail chains and public catering departments to replace raw material exports to China
    .
    Next year, the company plans to ensure the supply of at least 5,000 tons of pollock fillets to China
    .

     
      However, the EU remains the largest export market for RFC pollock fillets and minced meat
    .
    RFC’s exclusive distribution partner Pacific Rim Group increased the contract volume of fish fillets and surimi from 12,000 tons in 2020 to nearly 20,000 tons in 2021
    .
    By 2022, this number is expected to reach 25,000 tons
    .
     
      The growth of surimi sales in foreign markets is another goal of RFC
    .
    In order to develop the supply of surimi to China and Japan, RFC signed a long-term agreement with China's China Food Imports and Daisui of Japan in 2021
    .

     
      The RFC has also developed the sale of other fishery species in 2021
    .
    In particular, Pacific Rim Group’s sales of group herring to Africa increased by 20% compared to last year
    .

     
      In 2022, RFC plans to further increase the production of FAS pollock products and establish sales in domestic and foreign markets
    .
     
      "We strictly follow a strategy aimed at avoiding the export of raw materials and developing deep processing in the country," said Saveliy Karpukhin, the first deputy general manager of RFC
    .
     
      RFC is one of the world's largest pollock producers and one of the three largest wild white fish producers in Russia
    .
    The main catch species are pollock and Pacific herring
    .
