Vietnam prepared for October global shrimp meeting

Vietnam looks forward to the 2005 Global Shrimp Outlook (GSOL) conference, due to take place in October there.

The conference is to open by the end of October with the participation of about 300 of the world’s leading shrimp importers, according to the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP).

Vietnam was selected to host the event in January this year by the Global Aquaculture Alliance (GAA).

This year’s meeting will focus on four main subjects: shrimp production potentials of GAA member countries, the markets of large exporter countries, major importers including the US, the European Union, Japan and China; and forecast global shrimp prices.

This will be the fifth GSOL conference. The previous meetings were in turn held in Singapore, Indonesia, Mexico and Thailand.
