The U.S. Seafood Industry supports over 1.2 million jobs.
Local and regional seafood companies across the U.S. seafood sector need your help to amplify their contribution to the U.S. economy. Now is the time to step up and invest in America's fishermen and seafood farmers and everyone along the supply chain who work hard to provide us with sustainable seafood.
Today, the U.S. seafood industry contributes $60 billion to the national economy.
A National Seafood Marketing Campaign will create good jobs and investment opportunities.
The U.S. seafood sector represents a proud way of life and a stable job for millions of industry workers.
