The government of Indonesia through the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) continues to strive to boost exports of Indonesian fishery products. This is done to achieve the export target of Indonesian fishery products in 2018 which is set to reach a value of US $ 5 billion.

Director General of Maritime and Fisheries Product Competitiveness (PDSPKP) KKP, Rifky Effendi Hardijanto explained six fisheries commodities that are expected to be able to spur the value of Indonesian fisheries exports, namely shrimp, tuna, crab, crab, octopus, seaweed, cakalang and cob. Indonesia's main shrimp market is America's east coast. While the west coast of America is still dominated by suppliers from India. Likewise with the European market which cannot yet be optimized for marketing Indonesian fishery products.
