August 17, 2022

The Seafood Exporters' Association of India (SEAI) and the Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA) will collaborate to host the 23rd India International Seafood Show (IISS) in Kolkata, the City of Joy, from February 15 to February 7 of 2019.

Indian Marine Exports:

India recorded its highest-ever export by value during 2021–2022 with 13,69,264 tonnes of marine products exported for $7.76 billion, while shrimp production reached one million MT. With a multifaceted approach that addresses aquaculture and capture fisheries, the export turnover is probably going to reach US$ 15 billion over the next five years. The ambitious export target should be supported by sustainable fishing practises, value addition, and increased aquaculture production through diversification.
