Industry experts from the Seafish team will be presenting at the event on key industry issues ranging from fishmeal and aquaculture, to consumer insight on responsible sourcing, and the reduction of greenhouse gases in the global seafood industry.

As one of the congress partners, Seafish is exhibiting for the duration of the event, where staff will be on hand to explain the role that the organisation plays in supporting the industry and the new direction that it will be taking following a discussion with industry earlier this year.
