New policies and innovations to boost European seafood sector

The taste for European seafood is steadily increasing both at home and abroad, but environmental pressures are compromising supply which is dependent on fisheries and aquaculture. A more sustainable and financially viable model is therefore needed in Europe’s seafood sector.

Europe is looking to strengthen the competitiveness of its fisheries and aquaculture industries to meet increasing demand. Against this background, the EU-funded SUCCESS (Strategic Use of Competitiveness towards Consolidating the Economic Sustainability of the european Seafood sector) project worked on strengthening the competitiveness of the European fisheries and aquaculture industries by conducting key research along the full value chain, i.e. from the fishing net (producers) to the plate (consumers).
