Seafish Marketing Communications Executive Stephanie Antezana last week was named the Young Communicator of the Year award for her work on the Fish & Chip Shop of the Year competition and The Price of Fish? report at the Communicators in Business (CiB) awards in Scotland.
The Price of Fish? report, designed by Edinburgh company White Light Media, won the award for Best One-Off Stakeholder Publication. The report was produced as background information for industry, politicians and media in the light of the Marine Bills passing through parliament.
“These awards demonstrate the quality of the work we’re producing on behalf of the seafood industry,” said James Wood, Seafish marketing communications manager. “The Price of Fish? report was a vital statement of industry’s position at a time when legislation was imminent and environmental NGOs were at the height of their powers. This report is still being used by restaurants and seafood companies up and down the country to explain our work.”
The Longliner, the Seafish industry magazine, was also a finalist in the Best Stakeholder Publication category.
The awards were presented at a black tie dinner in Glasgow on 26 February. The winners were presented with their trophies by broadcaster Shereen Najiani.
“This year, as ever, the judges had a tough job narrowing down the entries to a shortlist,” said Roy Carter, CiB Scotland director. “It’s great to see the high standard of work being produced in Scotland, as well as the fact that despite tough times, people still see the value in benchmarking their work against their peers.”
