Vietnam tuna exports to the EU is showing signs of recovery and upturn in the remainder of this year after several months of declines, hitting $87.9 million in the first ten months of 2016, a year-on-year rise of 4.9%.
Last year, EU countries imported processed tuna products while fresh, frozen and dried tuna products are staple imported items for this year reaching nearly $49 million in 10 months, up 22%, according to VASEP. Exports of processed tuna stood at just $39m, down 10%. Vietnamese tuna products are shipped to 20 EU countries, primarily to Italy, Germany and Belgium.
High tax rates have driven canned tuna products from Vietnam in a fix to compete at the EU market while similar products from Ecuador and the Philippines enjoy a zero percent tariff, according to VASEP.
Experts forecast that Vietnam tuna exports to the EU continue to increase in the remaining months as holidays of the year begin to come.
