Latest Seafood Industry News
Welcome to the winter 2024 newsletter, which aims to cover the December to February period for the supply of fresh and frozen fish and seafood.
We have seen some stability in fish availability and price during the autumn, which is typically our best season for quality and consistency of landings. However, we are now heading into a more volatile period with a number of factors, political, environmental and economic, to consider. The recent budget has dealt a blow to our industry. The forthcoming increases in national living wage and national insurance contributions will have significant ramifications throughout the supply chain and for hospitality. The cost of living crisis has already seen swathes of closures and shorter operating hours for many catering establishments. It will be impossible for operators to absorb these costs. We strongly advise that you work with us over the forthcoming months to discuss ways in which we can mitigate the inevitable increases coming our way.
