Before you complain about your workday, listen to this episode. We first spoke with Nitesh Pal, the CEO of Polar Seafood Ukraine, just days after Russia began its incursion into the country in 2022. Pal, like so many other Ukrainians, had his life and business turned upside down by the attack. He went from living what he called the life of his dreams to a nightmare.Since that time, Pal and his company have gone through unimaginable changes. But remarkably enough, it's still supplying seafood, and Ukrainians are still happily eating it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) is far and away the most successful fisheries certification body. But definitions of sustainability are changing, eco-labels are coming under fire, and it's hard to see where all the "new" sustainable fisheries are. It leaves the MSC at an interesting crossroads.

We're seeing a lot of companies in trouble in seafood right now, and this week saw some of those ugly numbers exposed. On the bright side, though, one of the bigger potential implosions appears to have been avoided. We look into the Bristol Bay wild salmon season this week, and explore Norway's unusual drop in salmon exports. Plus, some thoughts on where new retail numbers might put seafood consumption.

Seafood eco-labels have been a lot of things over the years: a must-have ticket to certain customers, a shield against NGO attacks, and to some, an expensive burden.Now, exposes in India and China have called into question just how thorough the auditing process is for companies carrying certification, and if those labels are enough assurance.While sustainable seafood expert Andrew Mallison of Fishthink says certification has played one of the most important roles in making fisheries and aquaculture supply chains better, businesses and consumers are often confused on just what those eco-labels are telling them.

This week a series of reports and investigations into the Indian shrimp farming sector has once again led to a massive scramble for answers. But at the heart of the issue are increasing questions about how much buyers and suppliers can trust third-party seafood certifications. Plus, we're joined by IntraFish Reporter Anders Furuset, who helps us understand the controversy over Norway's lower-grade "production" fish. Hosted on Acast.

Journalist Ian Urbina's investigation into the China seafood processing sector has already had a huge effect on the supply chain.

Craigslist is great, but if you're trying to sell a massive seafood company, it's going to take more than an online post. Consolidation has been moving at a rapid pace in the seafood, aquaculture and fisheries sector, but there is much more to be done. We spoke with Ignacio Kleiman of boutique M&A firm Antarctica Advisors about the climate for deals in the sector, and where the M&A 'hot spots' will be in the coming year. Hosted on Acast.
