US keeps shrimp purchasing power in 2022

 

According to NOAA data, Vietnam is one of the four largest shrimp suppliers in the US.
US shrimp imports in the first month of 2022 still have a high growth rate, which is a good sign in the context of rising inflation in the US, and the impact of consumer spending in the US. The demand for US shrimp imports is expected to increase continuously in the following months, especially when this market has reopened after covid-19.

According to statistics from Vietnam Customs, in the first two months of this year, the US continued to be Vietnam’s largest shrimp market, accounting for 21% of the country’s total shrimp export value. Vietnam’s shrimp exports to the US continue to maintain the growth momentum of 2021, in the first 2 months of this year, shrimp exports to the US reached 117.5 million USD.
