Seafood buyers, using price as the only purchasing criteria, can become susceptible to misleading labeling practices and buy seafood that doesn’t meet expectations. The panel members will explain the importance of proper labeling, misleading labeling trends, clarify requirements for labeling additives, and advise how buyers can monitor what is contained in the product.

Consumers are increasingly aware of their impact on the environment and specifically the impact of their consumption habits on environmental health. This is true for seafood consumers as well, with data showing consumers want more sustainable options. Consumers also demonstrated the importance of seafood to them and their families during a year of lockdowns and quarantines in 2020 with record sales of seafood. How can we leverage a consumer shift in awareness and desire to shop better for themselves and for the planet and move the sustainable seafood industry forward? Hear from industry, NGOs, and donors working hard to make sustainable seafood an easy option for consumers, and how they’re approaching sustainability and seafood consumers differently in response to COVID.

While there are still plenty of obstacles between cell-cultured seafood and full-scale commercialization, the industry has seen increasingly rapid progress as multiple companies all work to improve the process and begin production at scale. As the industry grows, it also must begin addressing some of the overarching questions that are still yet to be answered in the industry.
