"'We still have salmon shipped from Norway, but the number of shipments has significantly dropped," said Huang Lien-fa, vice president of PTC Nakajima Suisan (Taiwan) Co.
The company sells sushi at various up-market supermarkets around Taiwan.
The price of Norwegian salmon shipped by plane has gone up 10 percent to 20 percent, he told CNA on Thursday.
Grand Formosa Regent Taipei, one of Taiwan's international five-star hotels, has had its Norwegian salmon supplies reduced. "Our supplier told us that there will be supplies on Thursday, but they are not sure about Friday," said Ellen Chang, the hotel's public relations director.
