What’s in store for the fisheries industry?
In the world of fisheries and aquaculture, there exists a lighthouse of innovation and collaboration – The DanFish International fair. Held in the city of Aalborg, Denmark, DanFish is Scandinavia's most prominent trade fair dedicated to the fisheries and aquaculture industries. MARPRO, the maritime recruitment company, is thrilled to announce its attendance at DanFish International.
Excitement is building for this year’s DanFish International, scheduled to be held at the Aalborg Congress & Culture Center (AKKC) from October 10th to 12th. This DanFish marks the 28th edition, and the anticipation has been palpable.
DanFish International casts a wide net, drawing professionals, exhibitors, and enthusiasts from across the globe, offering a unique platform to showcase the latest advancements in the sector, foster international cooperation, and address pressing challenges.
The Fishermen’s own exhibition
The roots of DanFish run deep. DanFish has a rich history dating back to its inception in the early 1970s. Over the years, the event has been held in Aalborg every 2-3 years and it has evolved from a modest regional event to a global trade fair.
DanFish is a testament to Denmark’s longstanding tradition of fishing and aquaculture. Denmark, a country known for its seafaring heritage and progressive approach to fisheries management, provides the ideal backdrop for such an event. Moreover, the event is held in Northern Jutland, an area which serves as a geographic epicentre for over half of the registered fishing professionals in the nation.
A platform for innovation
One of the key features of DanFish International is to serve as a launchpad for cutting-edge technologies and innovative solutions in the fisheries industry. Exhibitors from all corners of the globe converge at DanFish to showcase their latest products, equipment, and services. This diverse array of offerings spans the entire fisheries and aquaculture value chain, from fishing vessels and processing equipment to aquaculture systems and sustainability solutions.
Attendees can witness firsthand the latest advancements in sustainable fishing practices, automation, and digitalization. This focus on innovation is crucial, as the industry faces significant challenges related to overfishing, climate change, and resource management.
Aalborg welcomes the world
DanFish International is reclaiming its position as the largest fishing industry event in the Northern Hemisphere with a sprawling 7000 square meters of exhibition space at Aalborg’s AKKC venue, and an additional 4000 square meters of temporary space dedicated to this bustling event.
For three days, the exhibition centre will become a hive of activity, drawing visitors from all corners of the globe. Yet, it’s not just the event space that thrives; the entire city experiences a surge in business as hotels, restaurants, and other venues cater to the needs of thousands of attendees looking to showcase their products, forge new connections, stay updated on industry innovations, and immerse themselves in the world of fisheries.
