As one of the top raw material suppliers of fresh frozen tunas and other value added tuna products in the United States, the Fresh Frozen Seafood Association of the Philippines, Inc. (FFSAPI) Team led by Mr. Gerry Jazmin, attended the must-visit largest seafood show in the United States, the Seafood Expo North America which was held last March 12-14, 2023 at Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, Boston, United States.
The Seafood Expo North America is the market’s largest seafood annual trade exposition that gathers suppliers of around 50 countries from all over the world, under one roof, aiming to provide North America’s seafood buyers a one-stop-shop to access everything of seafood, up close and personal.
This event also provides opportunities to the attendees and exhibitors (buyers and suppliers) in every market category such as retail, food services, and processing to meet and network with current and new stakeholders, industry colleagues, and explore new products and services that meets their business needs.
Exhibitors who participated in the seafood trade exposition showcased almost every type of fish, seafood, and seafood-related products and services that’s in demand in the North American market, including fresh fish and seafood, frozen fish and seafood, value added seafood, processed and packaged fish and seafood and many more.
The Seafood Expo also featured around 30 educational sessions presented by top seafood industry experts giving the participants practical information on the relevant issues of today’s seafood business environment.
This year’s conference program covered topics focusing on aquaculture, corporate social responsibility, food safety & compliance (policy), seafood business & leadership, seafood sustainability, traceability & transparency, plastics & climate change as it relates to seafood, and lastly, impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global seafood trade.
FFSAPI believes that this event will help their association moving forward to improve, maintain its business leadership, and fulfill its life-long mission to be always one step ahead of the challenges happening globally.
