The catering industry has recovered rapidly and prices have risen sharply, which has driven the rapid growth of Chilean salmon sales.

"The U.
S.
epidemic has actually stimulated salmon consumption.
We have discovered some of the reasons behind it
.
On the one hand, consumers are more concerned about their own health, and home cooking has become the norm
.
Salmon is rich in vitamin D and antioxidant unsaturated fatty acids.
Consumers I began to incline to believe these scientific data.
This year's market demand and sales have resonated, and this trend is still continuing

In the US market, 47% of imported salmon products are chilled fish fillets, about one-third are chilled whole fish, and about 18 are frozen whole fish
.
.
Chilled fish fillets are mainly provided by Chilean suppliers, the ratio is about 69%, the chilled whole salmon is supplied by Canada, the proportion is 93%, and the frozen fish fillets are mostly from Norway, the proportion is 39%
.
The price of chilled fish fillets was the highest, with an average price of $11.
92/kg in the first half of the year, followed by frozen fish fillets with an average price of $11.
53/kg, while the price of whole fish was low at $7.

According to Griffin, the average meat yield of whole fish is 54%.
Generally speaking, when calculating the price difference between whole fish and fish fillets, the price of the whole fish is usually multiplied by 1.
54 to get the corresponding fish fillet price
.
Canadian whole fish are usually transported by truck to the United States and processed in the United States
.
Some Chilean suppliers are also increasing exports of whole fish.
Since 2017, whole fish sales have quadrupled

Hanus Jacobsen, general manager of the US subsidiary of Faroese producer Bakkafrost, said: “Salmon spot prices change every week
.
If a producer wants to harvest fish early due to certain biological problems, it will inevitably have a negative impact on the entire market.
The shelf life of chilled salmon It is very short, and price compromises will be made on the sales side
.
If another supplier is not satisfied with the spot price and there is no pressure on the biomass, he will postpone the fish harvest slightly and the market will adjust upward

“For salmon producers, every month can be the harvesting period.
This is no better than those of capture fisheries.
There are no seasonal restrictions
.
Chile is located in the southern hemisphere.
The winter months in the United States are the hottest seasons in Chile.
Norway, Scotland and France The Rock Islands are just the opposite, the summer months are the peak harvest season

Some Chilean suppliers sign 6-12 months forward contracts with importers, and prices are not affected by supply
.
.
Jacobsen believes that Chile's supply will fall into a shortage in the next few months, which is related to this year's red tide.
Even if it does not have a major impact on production in the second half of the year, prices can be maintained at a relatively high level
.
The Chilean Aquaculture Agency (Sernapesca) requires all areas where red tides occur to recuperate for 9-18 months, and the fry stocking plan must be changed

Jacobsen also said that the US market has different premiums for imported salmon quality.
Bakkafrost is currently Faro’s largest supplier.
The feed used is rich in marine raw materials, and the taste and texture of salmon are top-notch
