The canning industry Anfaco collaborates with Globefish in the collection and analysis of annual data. This cooperation is essential for the FAO department in charge of collecting information and analyzing the trade and market of fish and aquatic products and for the fishing industry agents, as it allows the development of strategies for both production and resource managers.

Anfaco will attend the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, the European Market Observatory for Fishery Products andAquaculture   (Eumofa) or the Conference of the United Nations on Trade and Development (Unctad), among others.

Globefish discussed at its meeting “the fundamental role played by a detailed and up-to-date knowledge of international markets and of the fishery species in the development of the fishery and aquaculture products processing industry”. Because, he adds, this type of information “allows the sector to adapt to global trends, identify business opportunities and improve the competitiveness of fishery and aquaculture products in the world market”.

The meeting provided a rigorous and updated analysis of the market, in a context marked by inflation, declining consumption and changes in consumer preferences.
