Canadian Fish & Seafood Fund Investing $8.5 Million to Support Initiatives

Several provinces and territories, including Newfoundland and Labrador and the federal government, have announced investments to build an international brand and grow trade opportunities for sustainable fish and seafood products.

A total contribution of $8.5 million is being provided to eight, not-for-profit fish and seafood industry associations to assist with market research, consumer research and domestic and international marketing strategies.

The fish and seafood sector generated approximately $3.1 billion in GDP for the Canadian economy.
