This study presents
findings on fish exports from Blantyre, which is the biggest commercial city in
Malawi. A cross-sectional research design was used in the study in which fish
quantities, species, processing methods, gender of fish exporters and export destinations
were analysed. Non-probability data collection methods were used on the
secondary data that was collected from Blantyre District Fisheries Office.
Findings indicate that a total of 9596 kg (9.6 metric tonnes) of fish was
exported within a period of six months in the year 2013 comprising all species
available in the local markets and those endemic in Malawi’s water bodies. Most
fish were exported as sun-dried, para-boiled and smoked. Findings suggest that
fish exports from Malawi are in their infancy, fluctuate, and are insignificant
for making a positive and sustainable impact to the economy of the country. It
is recommended that national and regional policies should be fully utilized to
curb exports of fish in order to sustainably satisfy the local huge demand for
fish. About 82.6% of the fish exporters were women underpinning the need for
policy considerations that value their critical role in the fish export trade such
as women empowerment.
