🇨🇱🦪 Chilean mussels are strengthening their position on the Russian market.
In January–April 2026, Russia increased imports of cooked frozen mussels from Chile by 20% year-on-year, reaching 6.5 thousand tons. In value terms, imports surged by 50% to $18 million.
The growth continues the trend seen in 2025, when supplies increased by 29% to 22 thousand tons, while the total value rose by 36% to $52 million.
At the same time, overall imports of fish and seafood from Chile to Russia fell sharply in the first four months of 2026 — down 30% in volume to 17 thousand tons and down 40% in value to $85 million.
Market participants link the growing demand for mussels to strong restaurant consumption and rising seafood costs, which have increased by 10–40% due to logistics challenges.
