Compiled by Customs Inform, Atlantic trout to Russia Jan – Oct 2014 provides a ranking of Russia's top 60 trout importers, and of the top exporters, for the period.

Coming amid Russia's Aug. 7 ban on western food imports, the data reveals Russia’s trout imports were already on a steep downward slope since the start of the year.

However, the sanctions exacerbated the trend and volumes in August halved as the country lost its key supplier Norway.

By the end of October, imports were down by nearly half (47%) in volumes compared to last year.

The only factors offsetting the ban have been an increase in volumes from Chile and Turkey, which have been the only two significant exporters to Russia since the ban.

Sales from Chile were up year-on-year in September and October, although for the year to date, they are significantly down compared to last year (less than half), reflecting Chilean farmers' decision to roll back on trout production.

Meanwhile Turkey has significantly increased its volumes as a result of the ban, recording a more than three-fold increase year-on-year in September, followed by a two-thirds increase in October. This has seen it overtake Denmark to become the third biggest supplier to Russia so far this year. However, the volumes remain small.
