一、 Background of the event
In recent years, the economic and trade development of aquatic products between China and Latin American countries has become increasingly close. The free trade agreements and the "Belt and Road" cooperation agreements signed with many Latin American countries have effectively promoted the investment and trade cooperation between the two sides. As a major producer, trader and consumer of aquatic products, China has a huge demand market, and Latin American countries such as Ecuador, Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Peru, Panama, and Venezuela are important trading partners.
By combing the data provided by the General Administration of Customs, it is found that from 2015 to 2021, the import volume of aquatic products in my country has increased year by year. In 2021, my country's aquatic product import volume will be 9.49 million tons, and the market concentration of my country's main import sources of aquatic products will further increase, mainly Ecuador, Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Peru, Panama and Venezuela and other countries. From 2001 to 2021, the proportion of aquatic products in these countries will basically remain at around 95%.
Under the impact of the epidemic, the economic and trade exchanges of aquatic products between China and Latin America have also been tested. In order to steadily promote the high-quality development of aquatic products in China and Latin American countries, actively deepen the connection of aquatic products between China and Latin American countries, focus on expanding emerging markets in Latin America, and optimize market layout, it will be held on September 16, 2022 during the Fisheries Expo.
