The Norwegian Seafood Council, proudly representing Seafood from Norway, along with Norwegian Frozen at Sea, welcomed the UK’s leading fish and chip shops and a number of key industry stakeholders to Ålesund, Norway as part of an educational study trip to showcase responsibly sourced cod and haddock – the two most popular species used by British fish and chip shops.
Seafood has been a part of my upbringing and my diet growing up. Norwegian seafood, the world’s best, still has a natural place in my life. The Norwegian Seafood Council does a tremendous job showcasing knowledge and inspiration about tasty, healthy, and sustainable seafood globally and back home in Norway. It was only natural for me to enter this partnership, says Erling Braut Haaland.
The Norway-UK Seafood Summit, organised by the Norwegian Seafood Council, returned to Fishmonger's Hall, London, on 27 February 2023, following a two-year break due to the pandemic. The Summit drew nearly 200 stakeholders from the seafood sector and related industries, where the two countries reaffirmed their commitment to strengthen and develop seafood trade, with sustainability in mind.
The Norwegian Seafood Council works with the Norwegian wild fisheries and aquaculture industries to develop markets around the world for Norwegian seafood. In the United Kingdom, the Norwegian Seafood Council works with distributors, retailers, fish & chip shops and HoReCa, in addition to key influencers and stakeholders in the food industry to provide seafood expertise and insights. Our seafood experts can partner to provide bespoke marketing support and industry communications, education and training tools, seafood trends and insight data.
