Fish prices dropped sharply in Ukraine: new prices for carp, herring, and mackerel.


In October, there was a decrease in prices for the most popular types of fish in Ukraine. In particular, the cost of freshwater and marine fish has significantly decreased.
According to 'MinFin', average prices for carp have significantly decreased. Currently, live carp costs 154 UAH per kilogram, which is 14% lower than in September. The price of gutted carp also decreased from 229 UAH to 214 UAH per kilogram, representing a 6.5% decrease.
Lightly salted herring rose in price by only 0.9% and costs 171 UAH per kilogram, which is slightly more than in September.
The average price for fresh sea mackerel was 164 UAH per kilogram, which is 7.5% lower than in September.

A similar situation is observed with other types of fish, where Novus offers more competitive prices compared to competitors.
