So said the Brazilian agricultural attach\u00e9 to Rabat, Nilson C\u00e9sar Castanheira Guimar\u00e3es, who sent ANBA a study where he points out the opportunities for Brazilian companies that would like to take advantage of the Moroccan market opening for fisheries from Brazil. The North African Arab country acknowledge the International Zoosanitary Certificate (CZI) Brazil presented to export the product last <a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/morocco-opening-to-fish-from-brazil-evens-out-trade-balance\/\">February<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The survey by Guimar\u00e3es show that in 2019 Morocco imported USD41.3 million in frozen fish. The executive points out a higher potential for Brazilian exports of skipjack tuna. From 2015 to 2019, the value of Morocco\u2019s imports of this product were up by 215% and the volume 236%.<\/p>\n<p>The main competitors in this market are Spain and France, whose exports to Morocco are duty free. Although Brazil has to pay the duty, the sector is still worthy, the attach\u00e9 says. \u201cWith the current devaluation of real, even with the 10% tax on Brazilian products, it\u2019s possible to be competitive in the Moroccan market,\u201d Guimar\u00e3es said in the study, pointing out that in 2015 the country exported 7,000 tonnes of the product. In 2019, it decreased to 3,305 tonnes.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/morocco-opening-to-fish-from-brazil-evens-out-trade-balance\/\">Morocco opening to fish from Brazil evens out trade balance<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/brazil-has-the-potential-to-step-up-exports-to-morocco\/\">Brazil has the potential to step up exports to Morocco<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Brazil could also ship other frozen fishes, such as red porgy, corvina, hake, and streaked prochilod. \u201cThese are some fishes exported from Brazil that could find a niche in Morocco,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Morocco has also imported more crustaceans and mollusks from the world. Out of all seafood, crustaceans are the most demanded by the Arab country, having reached USD96,283 in 2019, up 3.3% from 2015. Out of this group, shrimps are the most demanded.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-286163\">Marcelo Camargo\/Ag\u00eancia Brasil<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Arab country increased the volume and value of their frozen fish purchases from 2015 to 2019.
