    Exports for the whole of 2021 were 842,000 tons, and although data for the full year of 2022 has not yet been released, exports are expected to exceed 1 million tons
    by the end of 2022.
     
    Shrimp production in Ecuador increased from 1.
    01 million tonnes in 2021 to 1.

    Ecuadorian shrimp consolidated its position as an exporter in China, with Ecuadorian shrimp exports to China reaching 58,000 tonnes in October 2022, up 71% year-on-year, and a cumulative export volume of 490,000 tonnes in the first 10 months, up 63%
    from the same period the previous year.
     
    In contrast, exports to the US and EU fell 8% and 5% to 13,000 mt and 17,000 mt respectively in October, a decline caused by high energy prices in Europe and continued interest rate hikes in the US to fight inflation
