Venezuela signs agreement with China to boost fish exports (+CIIE)

Within the framework of the China International Import Expo (CIIE), Venezuela signed a Letter of Intent with the Chinese Association for the Processing and Marketing of Aquatic Products (CAPPMA), with the objective of expanding export opportunities and strengthening the presence of Venezuelan fishery and aquaculture products in the Chinese market.

CAPPMA is recognized as one of the most important organizations in the Chinese fishing industry. Founded in Beijing in 1994, it currently has more than 30 years of experience and, in this regard, brings together more than 1,800 companies dedicated to both processing and marketing, aquaculture production and related services, all through 36 sectoral subsidiaries together with seven specialized representative offices by species.

Its experience covers international cooperation, commercial promotion, product certification and development of quality standards, consolidating itself as a strategic ally to facilitate access to new markets and strengthen international trade relations.

This alliance opens up opportunities to establish direct links with Chinese buyers, processors and distributors, attract investment and strengthen the competitiveness of Venezuelan fish and aquaculture production.

The Letter of Intent covers four strategic areas: commercial exchange, investment attraction, technology transfer and specialized training.

With this initiative, Venezuela is making progress in the diversification of its export destinations and the positioning of its fishing and aquaculture supply in the Asian market, which generates new opportunities for growth and development for the national productive sector.
