Fishermen are reaping bountiful catches from the sea, with Loitta fish filling their nets in significant quantities. 

This abundance has increased Loitta’s supply across various markets in Cox’s Bazar, keeping prices well within buyers’ reach. 

A visit to the market reveals that this nutritious fish is selling for around Tk100 per kilogram, making it an affordable source of protein. 

Loitta packs essential nutrients despite its low price. When dried, its protein content increases even further, enhancing its value as a nutritional powerhouse. 

Protein from this fish plays a critical role in building body tissues and maintaining the body’s balance of hormones, enzymes, and other essential chemicals.
