Seafish has announced that it is giving serious consideration to a possible move from Hull to Grimsby, to be part of the new Humber Seafood Institute.

More than two thirds of Seafish customers in the Humberside area are based around Grimsby and, as plans to move from its old Hull quayside offices have been underway for some time, Seafish welcomes the opportunity to participate in this exciting development.

John Rutherford, Chief Executive of Seafish, said: “The Seafish Board has made a firm commitment to retaining local staff and we are now discussing practical issues with them.”
