Industry Relevance

Seafood Expo Global has been a mainstay within the Brussels business calendar since its first edition back in 1993 and has since grown bigger and better at its home at Brussels Expo. Part of the reason the trade fair has amassed such industry clout is the fact that it’s co-held with SEAFOOD PROCESSING GLOBAL. This way, both events are able to service the full value chain on all fronts. In terms of products, you can hope to see a great variety – fresh fish and seafood, frozen fish and seafood, value-added seafood, processed and packaged fish and seafood, freight forwarders and logistical services, and processing and packaging equipment. Program highlights include the coveted Seafood Excellence Global awards competition.

Who Are You Going to Meet?

As already touched upon, Seafood Expo Global is the comprehensive platform for all links in the process chain. It’s why you can expect any and every professional who has ties to the industry to be present during the upcoming edition. If we have to break down the countries who’re represented, we’d see a strong presence from Europe and in particular Scandinavian countries. In terms of visitors, there is a great diversity in their background. You have strong chances to meet and negotiate with hospitals, bars, fast food chains, importers and exporters, distributors, hotels, cruise lines, resorts, restaurants, wholesalers, supermarkets, airlines, and caterers. The international diversity is also a strong reason to attend. Attendance opens the doors towards many opportunities to sell to new markets!
