For the first time in its 66 year history, a Canadian is at the helm of the National Fisheries Institute (NFI), the largest seafood trade association in the US.
“As an industry, we are evolving, growing and embracing worldwide opportunities,” Mr Connelly said. “Henry Demone and the other officers provide us the leadership to engage industry, ensure fisheries continue to be well-managed, and provide opportunities for well-run aquaculture to help meet American families’ demand for nutritious seafood.”
