Meanwhile, CEO and Co-Founder of eFishery Gibran Huzaifah said his party was ready to realize the government's expectations. Given, currently eFishery itself has exported products to America and China.
"Now we are exporting to the US and China, the products are shrimp and are carried out in the fourth quarter. Markets for those two products in America and China are huge," he said.
Gibran said, apart from the two superior products from the eFishery members, there are also products that are currently being matured to penetrate the overseas market. These products are tilapia and catfish.
