By the end of October, Margarita Island successfully
completed a new shipment of 380 tons of
dehydrated seaweed, destined for the markets of Chile, Spain, Tunisia and China, as well
as frozen sardines and fish oil for Martinique, Ecuador and Peru.
This new shipment has positive results. For the
January-October period of 2026, exports from the entity experienced an extraordinary
growth of 76% compared to the same period in
2025, with more than 2,855 tons exported in 2026, while in 2025 there were 1,622 tons
in the same period.
This progress represents the result of
joint efforts between the ministries of Fisheries and Aquaculture, and for
Foreign Affairs and International Trade; the Nueva Esparta Special Economic Zone
(ZEENE), Bolivarian Ports, Neo-Spartan Government and
local businessmen, who have designed a solid road map to boost commercial export activity.
The constant export of maritime products shows
that Margarita Island is fully prepared to transform its
economy, diversify its revenues and consolidate itself as a
highly competitive international export reference, according to a press release.
