Resident of the Russian Arctic sent the first batch of live king crab from Murmansk to China

Specialists of the “Antey” group of companies have developed a unique logistics system for live crabs for export. Within 5-7 days, sea delicacies overcome the road from Murmansk to Chinese cities: Shanghai and Beijing. Despite tough economic conditions and logistical difficulties, anglers in the Russian Arctic are developing new export opportunities for crab products. Now is the season for fishing for king crab in the Barents Sea. As soon as the catch arrives in Murmansk, the crabs are sent to a special holding facility to relieve stress and prepare them for the road. For transportation to Moscow, special trucks equipped with a life support system for crabs are used, each carrying 4 tons of live crab. The total volume of transportation is 40 tons per week, and the journey from Murmansk to Moscow takes 30 hours.
