I. Shipment Ready for Overseas Delivery
On November 16, 2022, after conformity assessment by Zhanjiang Xiahai Customs, 2.51 tonnes of golden pomfrets from Zhanjiang Shuanghu Food Co., Ltd. were loaded into containers for export to overseas markets.
Luo Ning, a sales representative of the enterprise, stated that golden pomfret is the company’s core export product, gaining rising recognition overseas. The full-range support services provided by customs have efficiently resolved various export-related challenges, supporting the brand’s continuous expansion in the international market.
II. Comprehensive Support From Customs Delivers Two Core Pillars for Exports
To facilitate the global expansion of Zhanjiang’s golden pomfret industry, Zhanjiang Customs rolled out a package of supportive measures focusing on source quality control and customs clearance efficiency:
Full-chain food safety control to meet overseas market access requirements
Source supervision: Strengthen management of registered farms, and conduct oversight covering fry breeding, feed supply and offshore farming to guarantee raw material safety from the source.
Compliance guidance: Interpret food import and export regulations of different countries, and guide enterprises to upgrade processing technologies and establish standardized food safety management systems.
End-to-end supervision: Monitor the whole process including raw material inspection, production and processing, warehousing and logistics, urge enterprises to fulfill primary responsibility for food safety, and help avoid risks posed by overseas trade barriers.
Exclusive green channel greatly shortens customs clearance time
The customs authority optimized local inspection procedures and launched convenient measures such as appointment-based customs clearance, rapid inspection and release, and expedited certification. Simplified export inspection procedures enable quick clearance of finished golden pomfrets bound for overseas markets and cut warehousing and circulation costs.
III. Impressive Export Figures: Exports Hit 236 Million Yuan in First Ten Months, Up Nearly 50%
Customs statistics show that from January to October 2022, Zhanjiang’s golden pomfret exports reached 236 million yuan, marking a sharp year-on-year increase of 45.75%. The robust growth stems from three positive factors: a mature local aquaculture sector, targeted support from customs, and rising overseas market demand.
IV. Industry Outlook
As China’s key production base for golden pomfrets, Zhanjiang has built a complete industrial chain covering breeding, processing and exports, backed by full-process customs supervision and streamlined clearance policies. Rigorous food safety controls address overseas market access concerns, while the green channel improves trade efficiency, bringing Chinese aquatic products to dining tables worldwide. This also offers a replicable model for export development of featured fisheries in coastal regions.
