Fish from the Far East goes to Russian regions without delay for storage - refrigerator capacity is free. Now is the traditional break between the country’s two most important fisheries – Alaska pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) (special fishing ended on April 9) and salmon (industrial and traditional fishing starts in Kamchatka on June 1).

However, the production of fish and seafood in the Far Eastern fisheries basin does not stop. Vessels carrying fish products from fishing areas continue to arrive at the ports of Primorye.

By May 6, the total load of fish refrigerators in the Primorsky Territory was 30%: 34.2 thousand tons of fresh frozen fish products are in storage.
