Rabobank: China-US trade war to shift reprocessing landscape

With the ongoing saber rattling between the United States and China over trade, Rabobank Analyst Gorjan Nikolik told IntraFish that among the impacts the seafood industry can expect is a major shift in the reprocessing flows that have defined the industry in recent decades.

Though US producers have secured exceptions from the tariffs for some US-origin products reprocessed in China, buyers of non-US origin products will have to find alternatives, as will suppliers around the globe sending product to the US market via China.
