Scottish salmon exports experienced a “challenging” year in 2015, in stark contrast to a record 2014, primarily due to the Russian ban changing market dynamics, Scott Landsburgh, chief executive of the Scottish Salmon Producers Organization (SSPO), told IntraFish.
In 2015, Scottish salmon exports sunk 17 percent in volume to 83,415 metric tons, down from 100,719 metric tons in 2014, while in terms of value, sales fell 22 percent from £494 million (€633.7 million/$705.9 million) in 2014 to £385.9 million (€495 million/$551.4
