Germany: Opportunities in Germany for US Fish and Seafood Exporters

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   GM2022-0016

Germany is an important fish and seafood market for U.S. in Europe exporters. The growing demand for high-quality fish and seafood offers opportunities for U.S. suppliers especially with the partial resumption of shellfish trade in 2022. The German imports are traditionally dominated by Alaska pollock, but there are also good prospects for salmon, hake, cod, scallops, and dogfish, among others. In 2021, U.S. sales to Germany increased slightly to $214 million. This report provides information about U.S. exports, market entry, import requirements, as well as trade and market data.
