Hong Kong: Your gateway to a lucrative market

Hong Kong is well-positioned as the re-export centre for seafood products into Asia and its powerful market offers a myriad of opportunity.

  • About 30%-40% of seafood imported to Hong Kong was re-exported to China, United States, Macau, Vietnam and Taiwan.*
  • Hong Kong is home to more than 7 million people and enjoys a growing and competitive seafood market with a total value of $2.55 billion of imported fish and seafood products.**
  • The region's seafood market comes primarily from international resources due to its extremely high levels of seafood consumption and the declining domestic seafood industry
