Supplier: Gap in Russian, US wild salmon prices will close up

The traditional gap in spot prices for wild salmon from Russian and the United States will close up this year, said a Russian supplier.

Usually, the spot prices for wild salmon from Russia will be between $300 (€234.2) and $400 (€312.2) per metric ton lower than US-caught fish, said Dmitry Fedotov, founder of Superocean, a Hong Kong-based supplier of Russian pollock, salmon, cod and other seafood.

Don’t expect a big difference in pricing between the US and Russian Far East wild salmon this year, he told IntraFish.
