Countdown to CONXEMAR Seafood Exhibition

 Representing the interests of Spain's frozen seafood sector, the 11th CONEXMAR International Fair of Frozen Seafood Products kicks off Tuesday 6 October in Vigo, and runs till Thursday.

CONXEMAR is the industry body representing 271 companies within the Spanish Association of Wholesalers, Importers, Manufacturers and Exporters of Fish Products and Fish Farming – a role consolidated with its own voice as a member of the Fisheries Consultative Committee of Spain, and an essential instrument in promoting the country's frozen seafood sector.

Described as "the most important annual event for the Spanish market which in recent years has also proven of increasing importance on an international level," 535 exhibitors from approximately 30 countries are expected to attend the event.

This year, Spain's Ministry of Environment and Rural and Marine Affairs is sharing its 100 square meter stand with Fund for the Regulation and Market Organization of Fishery and Aquaculture, the National Association of Manufacturers and Canned Seafood and National Association of Fish Wholesalers .

Elena Espinosa, minister for fisheries and agriculture, will welcome Achim Steiner, executive director of the United Nations Environment Programme for a series of meetings on Tuesday, followed by a presentation and press conference on the ministry's 2010 budget.
