Zhanjiang Guolian Aquatic Products Co, which is based in Zhanjiang, Guangdong province, will make a foray into the pre-prepared dish market of Europe with its first shipment to be delivered to Britain in November.

The dishes include hotpot shrimp paste, tilapia slices, frozen spicy roasted tilapia, tilapia soup with pickled vegetables, frozen spicy boiled tilapia slices and frozen spicy crawfish.

As a major aquatic product company in China, Guolian will also start shipping precooked dishes to Canada in November — frozen roasted tilapia with pineapple this time.

It generated $10.21 million revenue from precooked dishes exports to Malaysia, Singapore, Japan, Cambodia, Australia and New Zealand in the first eight months of this year.
