A Mackay seafood exporter of 30 years says he is most definitely worried about the ripple effects China s import ban will have on the Australian industry. Mackay Reef Fish Supplies owner David Caracciolo, who has sold seafood in the region since 1986, said China had not renewed import permits leaving Australian exporters in the lurch with nowhere to offload their product. He said the situation had reached a point where seafood usually destined for overseas - especially in the quiet times in-between Christmas, Chinese New Year and Easter - was being dumped on the domestic market deflating prices. When the local market is depressed, it s very hard to sell, Mr Caracciolo said.
