The price of coldwater shrimp being traded through Iceland has begun reflecting increased supply levels, a source told Undercurrent News.

The "northern shrimp" season begins in April (ice permitting) and most harvesting tends to kick off fully from May onwards.

As a result, some Canadian shrimp is now reaching the market, easing prices across all but the smallest size categories (see below).

"Prices have been very much up in the air with the COVID-19 lockdowns," this source said. "Retail sales remained steady while foodservice — sandwiches and salads, especially in the UK — dropped off completely."

"Now there is a bit more stability, we are used to this COVID situation. 300-500 [count per kilogram] and 500-800 is still a bit harder to pin down, but generally, there is more stability."
