Norwegian fish exports to the Ukraine have plummeted this year, particularly in February, the result of the recent political turmoil, Jan Erik Johnson, marketing director for pelagic and fjord trout at the Norwegian Seafood Council (NSC), said.
Export figures from the NSC reveal sales of whitefish, salmon and pelagics to the Ukraine have nearly halved year-on-year.
In total, during the first two months of last year 12,356 metric tons of whitefish, salmon and pelagic were exported to Ukraine. In the same period this year, exports totaled 6,950 metric tons, a decline of 43.75
