N.S. completes ‘successful’ seafood trade trip to China

A seafood trade mission to China was successful, according to the province.

The 10-day trip by Fisheries Minister Kent Smith helped promote Nova Scotia’s seafood market, and support local companies.

In a release, Smith says the goal was to strengthen the province’s relationship with China, which is our second-largest seafood market.

He says they also gained a better understanding of China’s consumer trends and healthy choices.

Smith adds despite new tarrifs on most seafood imports from the country, there was a strong sense of optimism.

Eight local companies exhibited at the China Fisheries and Seafood Expo.
