The world\u2019s largest seafood trade fair will welcome global seafood industry for its first edition at the Fira Barcelona Gran Via venue on 26-28 April 2022<\/em><\/p>\n

Portland, Maine (26 May 2021) \u2013 <\/strong>Today, Diversified Communications, organizer of Seafood Expo Global\/Seafood Processing Global<\/a> announced that the 28th<\/sup> edition of the event will now take place 26-28 April 2022 in Barcelona, Spain. The event had been postponed from its original date of 27-29 April 2021 to 7-9 September 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cKeeping our customers\u2019 best interest in mind is our top priority,\u201d said Liz Plizga, Group Vice President, Diversified Communications. \u201cAfter evaluation of suppliers and buyers\u2019 concerns around the continued uncertainties caused by the on-going COVID-19 situation worldwide, it became evident that 2021 would still be too soon to host an international event that would provide the global experience the seafood community would find valuable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seafood Expo Global\/Seafood Processing Global is the world\u2019s largest and most diverse seafood trade event bringing together more than 29,000 industry professionals from around the globe. More than 158 countries are represented at the event and each country\u2019s complex COVID-19 regulations and governmental restrictions make it impossible to hold a large-scale global event in September 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are committed to Barcelona,\u201d added Plizga. \u201cWe will continue working with Fira de Barcelona and the city to ensure we can host a valuable in-person event that will bring back, at the Gran Via venue in 2022, the international representation that makes Seafood Expo Global\/Seafood Processing Global the global seafood marketplace and the largest seafood trade event in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have already received contracts for the 2022 edition and strong participation interest from all sectors of the global seafood industry. We look forward to having the most successful first edition in the beautiful city of Barcelona, Spain,\u201d said Wynter Courmont, Event Director, Diversified Communications.<\/p>\n

Seafood Expo Global\/Seafood Processing Global brings all the key players (suppliers, buyers, government, distributors, industrial and services) in the seafood sector from everywhere in the world. Seafood Expo Global features seafood suppliers showcasing their newest seafood products – fresh, frozen, canned, value-added, processed and packaged \u2013 to global seafood buyers including supermarkets, restaurants, hotels, catering services, importers, distributors, seafood markets and other retail and foodservice companies.

The event organizers\u2019 focus is to provide business continuity and continue to serve the needs of their customers. \u201cUntil the 2022 edition in Barcelona, we will be exploring online event opportunities to connect suppliers and buyers together and keep the seafood community informed on the latest topics in the industry,\u201d commented Courmont.<\/p>\n
