Understanding Pangasius prices

Applications and consumption
Households, restaurants and food processors consume seafood as fresh, chilled, frozen or processed products. Fillets and whole fish are distinct markets. An export or wholesale reference therefore describes a particular product rather than all seafood sold to consumers.
What affects Pangasius prices?
Feed costs in aquaculture, disease, weather, production cycles and harvest volumes influence supply. Processing, cold-chain logistics and export demand affect delivered prices. Species, size and product form must be aligned before comparing different market references.
