King Crab is a HUGE business. Even in Alaska, where it's caught in North America, for a pound at a restaurant you're looking at $100+.

I remember when the king crab came to Norway well. It was considered an invasive spiecies, a pest, which harmed and drove out our native crab species. The ugly spider like crab was killing our friendly normal nostalgic crab. It was called an invasion from russia. 30 years later the russian invasion was a blessing. Interpret it how you want. Or not.

Incredible how King Crab , an invasive species, became big business! Wish the US can spin the Asian carp into something profitable

@kentvesser9484 2 ай бұрын

They are trying. Obviously, in Asia it is heavily consumed, but in the US it is relatively new to the dinner table, so turning it into a commercially viable species is difficult. It will take a while to nurture a market for it. I think it's major drawback is its bones. Americans are used to filleted fish that is plated individually and aren't used to a fish being served whole on a plate family style where you use your chopsticks or a fork to pick the flesh out from between the bones. I think too that Asian Carp suffers from an image that it is a trash fish and not something you would want to eat. Though like many fish, someone just needs to come up with the right trendy recipe (Blackened Redfish for example) or market it under a different name (Patagonian Toothfish became Chilean Sea Bass just as Chinese Gooseberry became Kiwi Fruit) and sales sometimes take off. Maybe if they started calling it Freedom Fish, sales would increase. :)

Norway has been fishing for king crab for decades. The fact that more money is being made from the king crab now is due to sanctions against Russia, in the same way that the USA is making large amounts of money from oil in the same situation. The fact that Norway is in the king crab segment is clearly a competitive advantage, nothing else 😊

@eryu8263 3 ай бұрын

I wonder if there's a strategy for when sanctions against Russia will be lifted and the prices drop. I don't think the sovereign wealth fund will help this particular village rolling then. Norway's always been forward thinking so I'm guessing it'll prepare for the day but I wonder how just to satisfy my own brain.

@ShadowTani 2 ай бұрын

Now that the industry have been established it's not going to go away just because competition returns. Established trade partners may still prefer to keep buying from Norway, especially if the prices are comparable. And with Russia's negative reputation bound to linger for decades the demand for non-Russian alternatives are bound to remain as well.

@kentvesser9484 2 ай бұрын

@@ShadowTani Probably will depend on how big the price gap is. Pre-sanction Russian King Crab was about $10 less per pound than Alaskan caught where I live in the US. As a result you hardly saw Alaskan King Crab at the grocer. Now part of that might be that restaurants were willing to pay a premium for the Alaskan caught crab and pass on that markup more easily than a grocer could.

@norsenomad 3 ай бұрын

That is a fish of the flyndre/flounder family and is called Kveite (in Norwegian), aka Halibut (in English), with a typical adult weight of around 180 kg. As I am aware of, the largest specimen caught in Norwegian waters weighed 314.5 kg, caught by fishing net in 2007. Kveite is considered a traditional delicacy in Norway since the Viking Age, and probably long before that era. Kveite is described in writing in the Egil Skallagrimsson's Saga, as a food and important trade commodity remembered from his early years in Hålogaland, North Norway, among other places. (The Viking chieftain Egil Skallagrimsson lived in the period 910-990, in Norway and Iceland).

Norway is not out exporting Russia in the King Crab/Crab markets, it's not even close.

How? By fishing King Crab of the coast of Norway and selling it? Please - connect the dots for me so I can see the logic behind your statement.

It's not like these were opportunities that were taken at the expense of Ukraine, they just happened to be the sole alternative to many Russian products, practically pressured by Europe to increase production too. Rather they are big supporters of Ukraine, it's nonsensical trying to place blame on them.
