The 2017 show will be the 12th in the series and the previous event, held in 2014, saw an encouraging air of optimism as many exhibitors secured large orders. Not only was attendance up on the 2011 event by 12% to 15,219, but the number of countries from which attendees came, also increased to 52, including first time exhibitors from China, Germany, Japan, Turkey and USA. Over 500 exhibitors were in attendance, providing an array of offerings from processing and catching equipment, through to by-waste management and utilisation solutions.


The Icefish exhibition covers every aspect of the commercial fishing industry from catching and locating to processing and packaging, right through to marketing and distribution of the final product.
