The pie chart and table present information on the proportion of imported seafood to the UK from three countries and its value every decade from 1987 to 2007.
Overall, it is clear that the leading nations for importing marine products to the UK were Poland and Sweden. Also, the most profitable period was the last decade, in 2007.
To begin with, Poland showed the highest result among others, transporting approximately 65% of seafood to the UK in 1987. After a decade, in 1997, they had a significant drop to about 35%, almost twice as much. At that time, Sweden’s seafood import substantially increased, conveying roughly two fifths of the product. Meanwhile, Germany raised its amount from 7% to nearly 25%. The total value of marine products imported to the UK in 1987 amounted to 7.40 million dollars. The budget went up dramatically to 9.10 million dollars in 1997.
On the other hand, in the last 10 years, Sweden’s import overtook both Germany and Poland. Sweden import of seafood to the UK amounted almost 43% in 2007. The highest profit was in 2007, which was approximately 12.30 million dollars.
