Norwegian mackerel \u2014 saba \u2014 processed in Vietnam is one of the more interesting supply chain arrangements in the regional seafood industry. The raw material is Norwegian origin. It’s imported into Vietnam for portioning, boning, and freezing \u2014 then exported to Japan and Europe. For buyers who know their product, the key questions are traceability, boning quality, and portion weight consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Vietnam Processing for Norwegian Mackerel?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The boning and portioning of mackerel is labour-intensive. Vietnam’s processing industry has developed strong capability in this category \u2014 the same model that has worked successfully for Norwegian salmon processing in Vietnam. For buyers, the result is a Norwegian-origin product with Japanese-standard processing, delivered at a competitive landed cost compared to Norway-processed alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traceability is maintained from the Norwegian fishery through to the Vietnamese processing facility and final export documentation. Norway-origin certificates are available per shipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
