According to Headway's data analysis chart, Brazil is the largest export market for pangasius, reflecting the high demand and taste of Brazilian people for this white-fleshed fish.

• High demand for seafood: With a population of more than 212 million people by 2024, Brazil is a potential market for seafood products, of which pangasius is popular thanks to its competitive price and high nutritional content.
• Suitable for local tastes: With its white, soft meat texture and little fishy smell, pangasius is easily processed into common dishes in Brazilian cuisine.
• Supply limitation: Brazil often has to import pangasius and other white fish to meet domestic demand, due to the high price of domestic products.

With large populations and high consumer demand, China and the EU remain significant export markets for Headway. However, the EU’s strict quality standards and import regulations could impact future growth.
