Exhibit at Seafood Barcelona
Spain is the third global importer of fish, with purchases of 5.9 billion U.S. dollars in 2009, and the ninth exporter, with sales of 3.47 billion dollars in the same year (*). The particular significance of the Spanish market is unquestionably defined by the international fishing industry as the consumption per person, per year, is around 37 kilos, one of the highest in the EU (*). With a total of 992,489 tonnes of fish and seafood, aquaculture and processed products, Spain is also the number-one exporting country in the EU, representing 17% of the community total (*).
In turn, the countries from the south of the EU and the Mediterranean basin uphold significant fishing trade – Italy, Portugal, France and Greece are placed among the top 5 recipients of Spanish fish and seafood exports, while Morocco and Tunisia are originating countries of Spanish imports.
