Jose Anto, President of the National Aquaculture Chamber of Commerce, the trade organization of Ecuadorian shrimp producersNio Camposano said that with the increase in Chinese demand, Ecuador is responding. Exports have changed and exporters still need to be extra careful.

Since July this year, due to the discovery of the new crown virus in the outer packaging, the export of Ecuadorian shrimp to China has fallen sharply. Ecuadorian exporters are worried that it may take several years for the recovery of exports to China.

Previously, more and more Ecuadorian shrimp producers emptied their fish ponds when export orders dried up and prices fell to the bottom. Now export growth is good news.

Ecuadorian shrimp producers insist that any discovery of new coronary pneumonia must come from contact with the outside world, because they will reach their final destination after a long chain of custody.

In mid-August, China lifted the import ban on Ecuador’s largest shrimp exporters, Empadora del Pacifico, Santa Priscila and Empacreci, which together accounted for 27% of Ecuador’s shrimp exports to China.

The dialogue between Chinese and Ecuadorian officials prompted the two countries to sign a protocol in August this year aimed at alleviating the problem of shrimp imports from Ecuador. Shrimp exports from Ecuador totaled 119 million pounds in September, an increase of 6% year-on-year.
