27 suppliers are currently active in the Red King Crab category, with 3 updating their listings in the last 30 days and 6 over the past 90. This shows a steady, though modest, level of activity — meaning buyers can expect consistent product updates, but not a flood of new offers. For sourcing, it means each supplier is likely maintaining a current inventory, so buyers can rely on fresh data rather than outdated specs. 64 listings are currently live, offering a broad range of options across sizes, packaging, and origin. With this depth, buyers are more likely to find a close match without needing to start from scratch or make a custom request, especially when targeting specific market needs like export compliance or temperature control.

Methodology

How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.

Source

Every figure comes from Red King Crab listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 27 October 2026 - 64 active listings, 5 buyer requests, 11 source documents, and 74 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.

How ranges are read

Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Red King Crab type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.

One basis only

All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Red King Crab, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.

What counts as what

Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.

Update cadence

Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
