7On December 4, 7CEE conducted a local inspection tour for Myanmar-produced sea cucumbers at the request of a Japanese-Chinese entrepreneur.
Myanmar’s abundant sea cucumber resources
In Myanmar, large quantities of sea cucumbers are landed primarily along the coast, demonstrating significant potential as a natural resource. During this inspection, we examined the actual distribution conditions and handling environment.
Growing demand in the Chinese market
Sea cucumbers are in extremely high demand as a premium ingredient in China, with a stable market driven by health consciousness and fortifying properties. Business leaders have also commented, “Myanmar sea cucumbers show great potential in both quality and supply.”
Outlook for the Future
7CEE supports business matching that connects local resources with overseas markets, including in primary industries such as fisheries. We will continue to provide support focused on building reliable distribution systems and sustainable business development.
