Vietnam remains Cambodia's top seafood supplier in H1, with Cambodia importing around 38,000 metric tons of tuna and other seafood products worth over US$61 million from the country, according to a report by the Cambodian Ministry of Commerce. China was the second-largest supplier, with shipments valued at over $16 million. Other markets, including Hong Kong, Australia, France, Japan, South Korea, and Malaysia, contributed around $10 million in imports.
Despite being a major seafood importer, Cambodia also exports locally caught seafood, earning over $1 million in the first half of the year to various markets. The Cambodian Ministry of Commerce is promoting the registration of a geographical indication (GI) for crabs from Kep province, aiming to enhance the competitiveness of local seafood products and support Cambodia's seafood exports.
