Seafood processors across the UK are being encouraged to take part in an annual census aimed at providing a snapshot picture of the whole industry.

Run by Seafish, the public body that supports the UK seafood industry, the annual processing census builds a clear picture of the processing sector by gathering information from businesses to help understand its scale, performance and economic contribution.
This year the census will run between April and June. Seafish researchers will contact businesses directly and invite them to take part in a short telephone survey, which typically lasts between 10 and 15 minutes and covers key operational information.
The results are shared with industry and Government bodies to support informed decision making.
Seafish Field Researcher, Joe Vince, who will lead the project, said: “By taking the time to contribute to the processing census businesses really are helping to make a difference.
“Every response builds a much clearer picture of the processing sector, ensuring it can be properly understood and supported.
“It’s a simple process and we really encourage processors to get involved.”
