lautnusantara.com Known for its rich protein and albumin content, snakehead fish (Channa striata) has bright prospects for penetrating the international market. Global demand for natural health products and high-quality animal protein sources continues to increase. This opens up significant export opportunities for Indonesia, as a major snakehead fish producer.

Leading Export Products
Several forms of snakehead fish products have significant export potential, including:

1. Albumin Extract in Capsule Form: This is the most promising product. Albumin from snakehead fish is highly sought after as a health supplement, especially in countries with large numbers of post-surgery patients, those suffering from malnutrition, or those requiring high protein intake for recovery. The capsule format makes it practical, easy to store, and offers a high market value.
2. Frozen Snakehead Fish: Whole snakehead fish or frozen fillets are also in demand, especially among Asian communities abroad seeking fresh snakehead fish. This market targets ethnic supermarkets, restaurants, and seafood distributors.
3. Snakehead Fish Floss: Abon is a processed product that is already popular in Indonesia. With attractive packaging and export standards, snakehead fish floss can be a healthy snack or unique side dish in the global market, especially in countries that favor processed protein products.

Potential Market
The main export markets for snakehead fish products are East Asian countries such as Japan, South Korea, and China, where supplements and functional foods are highly valued. In addition, countries in the Middle East and Europe are also starting to show interest, particularly for health supplements and pharmaceutical raw materials.

Challenges and Strategies
To successfully penetrate the international market, several challenges must be overcome:

• Quality and Safety Standards: Products must meet international standards such as HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) and be certified by relevant institutions in the destination country.
• Production Capacity: Export demand can be substantial, requiring consistent increases in cultivation and processing capacity to maintain a stable supply.
• Marketing and Branding: Snakehead fish products from Indonesia must be marketed with a strong narrative, highlighting their natural health benefits and advantages over similar products.

With the right strategy, Indonesian snakehead fish products have all the capital to become a major player in the global export market.
