Whiting Market FAQs
What drives whiting prices?
Whiting prices are set by catch patterns in both the North Atlantic and South Atlantic, and by demand across European wholesale and US fillet markets. Two distinct species trade under the whiting name, so drivers can differ by market.
Is blue whiting the same as European whiting?
No. European whiting and blue whiting are different species, and Expana tracks each separately in the Spanish wholesale market since they can move independently.
What whiting benchmarks does Expana cover?
Expana covers European and blue whiting wholesale prices in Spain, UK landing values, and Argentine and Uruguayan fillet benchmarks sold into the US.
What is an Expana IQ Forecast?
