Record Sardine Landings at Laayoune Port Contribute to Stabilizing Fish Prices During Ramadan
The Laayoune Port has recorded unprecedented landings of sardines, contributing to the supply of this essential product in national markets while stabilizing prices amidst rising demand during Ramadan.
Professional data indicates that the abundance of sardines unloaded at the port, one of the most important fishing ports in the kingdom, has helped achieve a balance between supply and demand, positively impacting the prices of sardines in various markets.
This boost comes as a result of improved fishing conditions in recent weeks, along with the efforts of industry professionals to ensure a continuous supply and avoid any potential shortages in the markets.
Additionally, the significant quantities caught have invigorated trade activity in wholesale and retail fish markets, particularly with the growing demand for fish during Ramadan, as it is one of the most consumed food products.
Industry professionals are optimistic about maintaining the same levels of landings in the coming weeks, ensuring price stability and preserving consumers’ purchasing power, alongside supporting the fishing sector’s activities and enhancing its economic contributions at both local and regional levels.
