Export Shrimp & other crustaceans from Pakistan to Malaysia

Malaysia imported US$234M of shrimp & other crustaceans (HS 0306) in 2025. India supplied US$46.1M of that in 2025, while Pakistan supplied US$7.3M, a gap of US$38.9M. Pakistan's share of the market is 3.1%.

That gap matters: buyers in Malaysia already source this product from South Asia and accept the shipping times, payment terms and documents involved. Pakistan's total sales to Malaysia grew 50% between 2020 and 2025, which suggests buyers there are increasingly open to Pakistani suppliers.
