Kılıç Holding expands live fish exports to Arab countries
(TURKEY, 7/11/2017)
Kılıç Holding has for the first tiem succeeded in exporting more than 1 million sea bream fish to Oman for the aquaculture sector while it continues recording a strong deman of live fish in the Gulf countries.
The Turkish firm produces 50 thousand tonnes of fish and exports 70 per cent of its production annually. It sends fish seeds to Arab countries and intends to increase sales to each of the Gulf countries.
After having exported USD 142 million in 2016, the firm informed it sent Oman 1 million 200 thousand sea breams for bone marrow by plane.
“We supply the Arab countries with their need for seed fish,” pointed out Kılıç Deniz Ürünleri Hatcheries and Foreign Investments Director Serkan Ilgaz.
The manager reports that Turkey has become the market leader in seabream and seabass, leaving behind Greece in the production of aquaculture.
"Our hatcheries in Muğla and Aydın produce 200-250 million seed fish a year. We cover half the seed fish production in Turkey. We had been exporting our fishes by sea-shipment until recently. However, we have started shipping to new markets we could not reach by sea via air-shipment,” he concluded.
