Why the End of the Off-Season Matters

China’s fishing industry follows a regulated schedule to ensure sustainable fish populations and healthy marine ecosystems. During the annual off-season, fishing in certain waters is temporarily paused to allow fish to spawn and replenish.

Once the off-season ends in late August, fishing vessels return to sea, bringing back the first fresh catch of the new season. This timing is important because:

Peak Freshness – The first catch after the off-season often delivers the best quality, as fish stocks have had months to recover and grow.

Steady Supply – From September onward, production facilities ramp up, ensuring continuous supply for global orders.

Competitive Pricing – Early buyers often benefit from more stable pricing before peak seasonal demand later in the year.

For businesses, this means that the end of August is the prime time to place orders and lock in product availability for the months ahead.


Our Main Products: Tuna, Mackerel, and Sardines

1. Canned Tuna

Tuna is one of the world’s most popular seafood items thanks to its versatility, lean protein content, and mild flavor. Our canned tuna is available in several styles, including:

Chunks in Brine – Lightly salted water that preserves the natural taste.

Chunks in Sunflower Oil or Soybean Oil – A richer, smoother taste with added moisture.

Flakes in Brine or Oil – Perfect for spreads, salads, and sandwiches.

Tuna is a global kitchen staple, ideal for:

Salads such as classic tuna Nicoise.

Sandwich fillings or wraps.

Pasta sauces and casseroles.

2. Canned Mackerel

Mackerel offers a more robust flavor and is packed with healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Our mackerel products include:

In Tomato Sauce – A traditional favorite in many markets, balancing rich fish flavor with sweet-sour tomato sauce.

In Brine – For those who prefer the natural taste of the sea.

In Oil – Enhances flavor and texture, perfect for hearty meals.

Mackerel is especially popular in African, Middle Eastern, and Southeast Asian markets, where it’s often served with rice, bread, or vegetables.
