B.C. SEAFOOD EXPORT HIGHLIGHTS – 2013 B.C. exported $903 million worth of seafood products to 62 different markets in 2013, an increase of

four per cent from 2012.

Eighty-nine per cent of B.C.’s total seafood export value was generated by the top five markets: U.S., China, Japan, Hong Kong and Ukraine.

Exports of salmon and trout products decreased by two per cent in 2013 to $417 million – down from $424 million in 2012.

Exports of groundfish products increased by four per cent in 2013, rising from $130 to $135 million.

Invertebrate and marine plant exports rose to almost $236 million in 2013, a 16 per cent increase over the $204 million in 2012.

Exports in the “other seafood products and species” category increased by two per cent, rising from $112 million to $115 million.

The negative growth trend in seafood exports is primarily due to continued declines in production volumes.

NOTES AND DEFINITIONS

1. “Agrifoods” includes “Agriculture” and “Seafood” products.

2. “Agriculture” includes agriculture products produced by farmers, growers and ranchers in British Columbia, as well as food and beverage products manufactured by B.C.’s food and beverage processors (regardless of where ingredients were sourced from). Agriculture does not include any fish, shellfish or marine plant products.

3. “Seafood” includes fish, shellfish and marine plants and their products harvested or cultured in marine and freshwater.

4. “Food Preparations for Manufacturing” includes pastes, powders and flavourings used by food manufacturers.

5. “Industrial By-Products & Residues” includes bran, waxes, animal or vegetables fats and other by-products and residues from food and beverage manufacturing.

Export data provided in this analysis refers to B.C. Domestic Exports, not B.C. Origin Exports. Domestic exports consist of the exports of all goods grown, produced, extracted or manufactured in the province (British Columbia) leaving the province (through customs) for a foreign destination. Exports of imported merchandise that has been substantially enhanced in value are also included. Export data provided in the “Agriculture” analysis has been revised from raw data released by Statistics Canada to account for apparent discrepancies regarding exports of soya beans, beef tallow, rapeseed/canola oil, oilcakes, tobacco, raw hides/skins and beef products that are believed to come from other Canadian provinces. Therefore, the total export values for B.C. “Agriculture” and “Agrifoods” provided in this analysis have been reduced by $85.2 million in 2011, $258.6 million in 2012 and $279.8 million in 2013. The Ministry of Agriculture is working with Statistics Canada to investigate these discrepancies.
