For the third consecutive year, this session will present the latest global shrimp export and import statistics. You’ll gain a clear understanding of recent shifts in product and trade flows—insights that will frame discussions throughout the rest of the forum. We will walk through country-level trade data and invite country representatives to join us on stage to provide context and engage in discussion. This session has become a cornerstone of the Global Shrimp Forum programme and will remain a recurring feature of future editions.
