Over the years, Seafood Expo Russia has successfully hosted European participants, fostered trade relationships and facilitated knowledge exchange for the joint development and modernization of the worldwide fishery industry. Esteemed industry leaders like BAADER, Damen, Carsoe, Optimar, Bjordal, and others have provided sea workers with everything they need, ensuring crew safety and promoting more sustainable fishing practices. Although the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing disruptions in international ties and supply chains have posed challenges for European companies in recent times, the main Russian fishery industry event remains open for partnerships.

 

 

 

The evolving challenges and shifts in global trade and cooperation have increased the importance of Seafood Expo Russia due to its ability to find the most effective development scenarios even in difficult dynamic conditions. It continues to be a vital platform for connecting stakeholders from Eurasia and around the world, unlocking the immense potential of the global fishery industry. The presence of companies from all over the world not only emphasizes the significance of the event as a platform for international cooperation, but also demonstrates to them the possibilities of the domestic market.

 

Russia, driven by its determination to surpass its current status as just one of the top countries in global catches, remains committed to a resolute and large-scale renewing campaign. With access to three oceans and vast inland water resources, the country is uniquely positioned to lead the fishing industry, offering exceptional partnership opportunities. 

 

 

The departure of several European technology and equipment suppliers did not hinder the modernization of the Russian fishery complex. The country's enormous market and investment potential continue to attract businesses from all over the world, so representatives from the Asia-Pacific region, Latin America, and the Middle East are displaying keen interest in expanding trade relations and engaging in joint development ventures with Russia.

 

These factors collectively contribute to the emergence of a new point of attraction for the worldwide fishery industry and its associated infrastructure at Global Fishery Forum & Seafood Expo Russia in St. Petersburg. 

 

 

Recognizing the importance of modernizing the fishery complex to ensure global food security and preserve the ecological environment of fish and seafood in Arctic regions and other key areas of worldwide biological diversity, the event acts as a catalyst not only for expanded trade relations, but also for international cooperation in various domains. In 2023, it will also serve as the central aquaculture event for the Eurasian Economic Union, further enhancing opportunities for trade and market expansion for European companies.

 

Sixth Global Fishery Forum & Seafood Expo Russia will be held at the Expoforum Exhibition and Convention Center in St. Petersburg.
