More than 1,800 exhibiting companies from 79 countries will be displaying their seafood products, services and equipment in an area spanning more than 38,350 square meters.
The exposition will bring thousands of industry stakeholders from every sector of the seafood industry around the globe together with new and existing suppliers. They will learn about emerging trends and discuss industry challenges and successes, according to organizers.
Attending seafood buyers will be represented by restaurants, supermarkets, hotels, catering services, importers, distributors, seafood markets and more.
