Zhanjiang, a coastal city in South China's Guangdong Province, exported 80,000 tons of aquatic products in the first 10 months of this year, up 7.74 percent year-on-year. The aquatic export was worth $380 million for the period, a year-on-year increase of 6.23 percent.

Officials from the local entry-exit inspection and quarantine bureau said that they have adopted stricter measures to guide local industries to comply with higher standards on food safety, avoiding trade barriers from foreign countries.
