Connect with Seafood Buyers from Asia Without Traveling This October

While travel remains uncertain, Food Export–Northeast is offering seafood suppliers two different opportunities to meet or reconnect with Asia’s seafood buyers this October. The first will be an Asia-specific Seafood Virtual Buyers Mission that will be held October 18-20, 2021. Suppliers will also be able to target the China market through participation in a virtual showcase at the China Fisheries & Seafood Expo from October 27-29, 2021. Suppliers who register for both opportunities will automatically receive a 25% discount for each event.

Take Part in the Upcoming Seafood Virtual Buyers Mission: Asia

This virtual event will feature buyers from East and Southeast Asia during three days of one-on-one virtual meetings between October 18-20. Suppliers will be able to review buyer profiles in advance and rank buyers of interest. Food Export–Northeast staff and its In-Market Representatives will be on-hand to facilitate meeting logistics, answer market questions, and set up individual meetings upon request.

Participate in the China Fisheries & Seafood Expo Virtually

Seafood suppliers can retain their foothold in the China market despite the travel restrictions through participation in a Food Export–Northeast showcase at the China Fisheries & Seafood Expo taking place October 27-29, 2021. Participating suppliers will have a call with Food Export–Northeast’s In-Market Representative in advance of the show to discuss their objectives for participation (e.g., meeting new buyers or reconnecting with previous customers). Suppliers will provide company profiles and can opt to send digital or print materials in advance of the show to promote their brand. Food Export–Northeast’s In-Market Representative will promote participating suppliers to buyers before and during the show, and all participating suppliers will receive a detailed post-show report with leads generated for their products.
