PERU fishing with guts to report…
Wild Mexican Pacific shrimp is the best possessed ranking US consumption to 12 percent above the average mark market value.
In the current season and the beginning of the new year 2015, sales of shrimp grew as a source of foreign currency and jobs in Sinaloa, although it fell 46 percent in production volume for December, averaged Miguel Rouss, Manager of the Global Producers in the Sea of Mexico.
"We are top-ranked in the price for the quality of products, including 25 of the 52 states of the American Union."
The 12 percent increase in prices in all sizes, historically quoted him since the season began.
In the ranking. The production of shrimp caught off the Mexican coast of Sinaloa and Baja California, along with that of Peru, are the two producing zones more supply of wild shrimp to 25 eastern states and western United States.
He explained that during the 2013-2014 season, entered the Sinaloa producers $ 45 million by selling 5.5 million Pounds own brand “Mexican Shrimp Paradise”Of the Promarmex marketer.
"We have not sold the expected volumes, but they have had historical".
The manager cited an average selling price of $ 10.60 a pound, 75 percent of total production, where three sizes exportable predominate; 16-20, U-15 and 21-25.
Price, compared with $ 9.39 a pound in the same period of 2014, there is a difference in the value of 12 percent for Industrial Sector Pesquero, compared.
In late November, the season was atypical with 35 percent down on production, but in late December boats and reported slight rebound to January, apparently, are finding product.
Sales conservative. The producer struggle every day to keep prices Shrimp on right now that there are high operating costs for the fleet, so keep the current market value, depends on the fleet does not paralyze explained Directors.
"Imagine prices increase costs and prices of shrimp. It could explode again a big problem in the local fishing industry ". What I regret is the drop in production, 46 percent below the turnover, a result that US buyers are being more conservative in their purchases, precisely because of the high prices.
US imported shrimp from different countries, from January to October 2013, 417 000 126 tons, while last year bought 12 percent more volume.
Keep jobs. The advantage is that from December 2014 to January 26, 2015, an increase in coffee export shrimp size was recorded, which could exceed the target of 5.5 million Pounds export volume for the current Zafra Camaronera.
He explained that from October to November 2014, and were exported 3.6 million Pounds, but thanks to increased catches of December 29 to January 26, 2015, vessels reported over 1.5 million Pounds.
"We have reported that not so bad production and will close the season well"He called.
Behavior maintaining employment in the freezer, women's boots and repairing all types of equipment. Only in fisheries September 15 employing up to 70 people, little has been cut.
Pressure in girls sizes.
Where is he feeling pressure, it is in girls sizes 26-30 to 41-50, because too much volume you are importing US production from Asian countries, Steering abounded.
The Pacific Fleet produces white, brown and blue, predominates over coffee, captured in Baja California Sur.
"The advantage for us is that production dominates 75 percent, sizes 16-20, U-15 and 21 to 25".
While 25 percent are girls and medium sizes where not for the marketer, has maintained and increased prices. "
In season started opening the market in Canada and Hong Kong.
