Somalia will officially begin exporting fish to China next month, after Beijing granted duty-free access to its market for some African products.<\/p>\n

The agreement to implement the agreement was signed in Mogadishu by the Somali and Chinese sides, the Somali Minister of Fisheries and the Chinese Ambassador to Mogadishu.<\/p>\n

The agreement allows Somali traders to export fish duty-free to the Chinese market, one of the largest in the world.<\/p>\n

The Director General of the Ministry of Fisheries and Blue Economy, Abdi Dirshe, described the agreement as an important step towards developing Somalia\u2019s blue economy.<\/p>\n

He said that opening up the Chinese market could create job opportunities and attract investment in cold storage facilities, fish processing and supply chains.<\/p>\n

However, there are still challenges facing Somalia in taking advantage of this opportunity, including limited fish production, the lack of large-scale fish processing plants, and the need to improve quality standards to meet international market requirements.<\/p>\n

Somali businesspeople see this agreement as a new opportunity to boost fish exports and create an international market for the country\u2019s fisheries products.<\/p>\n
