Honduras and China signed an agreement on July 21 to export 3,000 tons of shrimp to the Chinese market, according to Xinhua. The agreement was finalized during a bilateral meeting in Tegucigalpa, attended by officials from both nations.
The deal aims to open new commercial opportunities for Honduras’ growing aquaculture sector. Shipments are scheduled in multiple batches throughout 2025, following the establishment of sanitary and logistical protocols that meet Chinese market standards.
Honduran authorities described the agreement as part of a broader national strategy to promote agriculture and aquaculture exports to Asia. In China, officials hailed it as an example of “practical, mutually beneficial cooperation”.
This operation is expected to be the first of several regular exports, fostering deeper economic engagement between the two countries. The agreement could also pave the way for future trade in other agro-industrial products, benefiting rural communities and generating foreign exchange.
