Seafood Barcelona
The Global Seafood Market
22-24/October
Gran Via. 2nd event
The international show devoted to seafood
products replicated for the second time one of
the most important trade fairs in the world, the
European Seafood Exhibition, based in Brussels.
It reached excellent figures of international
participation, not only in terms of exhibitors
–featuring brands from 27 countries–, but also for
the attendance of the main operators and buyers
of the sector coming from Maghreb, Egypt, China,
Russia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Singapore and
Venezuela, besides United States and Europe.
This support from professionals responds
to the quality and quantity of the exhibited
products, the presence of the main manufacturers
and distributors of the sector, as well as the
international network managing Diversified
Business Communications and Alimentaria
Exhibitions, company owned by Fira de Barcelona.
Buyers of seafood products belonging to the
great distribution, supermarkets, hypermarkets,
retailers, importers, distributors, wholesalers
and the hotel, restaurant and catering channel,
gathered together again to do business and
discover the latest trends in the market. Worthy
of mention were fresh sea, processed, frozen and
high added value products; processing services
and technology, transportation and storage,
packaging, canning and bottling; and service
companies.
Once again, Seafood Barcelona received
the support of the main institutions and
organizations of the sector, including the Ministry
of Agriculture, Food and Environment of Spain,
the Spanish market company Mercasa, the
trade organization Anfaco-Cecopesca and the
corresponding regional offices.
