Be sure to check out the New Product Showcase, where you’ll find some of the latest innovations hitting the market, including three entries from Channel Fish Processing: Jalapeno Popper Shrimp, Spanakopita Wild Blue Catfish, and Super Simple Salmon. From responsibly sourced seafood to value-added options that bring restaurant-quality meals into home kitchens, this section is a must-visit for anyone who loves great food.
At Channel Fish Processing, we’re committed to providing high-quality, sustainable seafood options, and we’re excited to see how other industry leaders are pushing the envelope. If you care about innovation, environmental impact, and top-tier flavor, this is where you’ll find the future of seafood.
For the Business-Minded: Industry Trends and New England Influence
Boston’s seafood industry isn’t just about great meals—it’s a major economic driver with a long history of innovation. If you’re focused on the business side of seafood, SENA is the perfect place to explore the latest in processing techniques, packaging trends, and supply chain advancements.
One trend to keep an eye on? Sustainability in processing and packaging. Companies are finding ways to reduce waste, extend product freshness, and improve efficiency, all while maintaining the high quality that consumers expect. Many of these developments are coming directly from New England, where seafood businesses have long prioritized responsible fishing, local processing, and premium quality control.
As a Boston-based company, Channel Fish Processing is always looking for new ways to improve efficiency and sustainability in our operations. SENA is an opportunity to learn, network, and bring home ideas that can shape the future of seafood processing.
For Community Builders: Sustainability & Collaboration
Beyond the products and business deals, SENA is also a gathering place for industry professionals who are passionate about seafood and its future. This year, sustainability and collaboration are key themes, and there are plenty of sessions and exhibitors focusing on these important topics.
If you’re invested in the long-term success of the seafood industry, seek out panel discussions and networking events that focus on responsible fishing, traceability, and industry partnerships. These conversations are shaping the policies and practices that will define seafood for years to come.
Boston’s seafood community has always been built on strong relationships—between fishermen, processors, distributors, and consumers. At Channel Fish Processing, we know that working together is the key to a thriving, sustainable future. Seafood Expo North America is a great place to connect with like-minded professionals and share ideas that will help the industry grow responsibly.
