Seafood Expo North America Boston

Seafood Expo North America is the leading trade fair for the seafood industry in North America. It serves as a key platform for businesses looking to enter the North American seafood market or expand their existing presence. Held annually in Boston, Massachusetts – a historic port city and longstanding hub of the US fishing industry – the event draws industry professionals from across the globe.

The expo is organised by Diversified Communications, a US-based international media company specialising in trade events and industry publications. Seafood Expo North America is part of a global exhibition portfolio that includes Seafood Expo Global in Barcelona and Seafood Expo Asia, together forming a robust international network for knowledge exchange across the global seafood sector.

What sets Seafood Expo North America apart is its depth of content and clear industry focus. The event addresses current challenges and opportunities across the entire value chain – from aquaculture and seafood processing to automation, artificial intelligence, and food safety, through to sustainability, traceability, transparency, and modern marketing and sales strategies. Broader industry trends, consumer behaviour, and innovations in retail and foodservice are also key themes.

The exhibition showcases a wide range of products including fresh, frozen, and processed seafood, alongside the latest technologies, machinery, and equipment for fishing, aquaculture, and processing. Seafood Expo North America brings together leading producers, suppliers, distributors, retailers, importers, exporters, and foodservice professionals from around the world – from start-ups to multinational corporations. This global diversity makes the expo a vital meeting point for networking, business development, and the exchange of ideas.

A particular highlight is the New Product Showcase, where innovative developments take centre stage. The programme is further enriched by live culinary demonstrations from renowned chefs and industry competitions that spotlight the sector’s creative side. A series of expert-led conferences and panel discussions offers valuable insights and fresh perspectives for attendees.

Seafood Expo North America is more than just a trade show – it is the heartbeat of the North American seafood industry. For anyone looking to understand, shape, or enter this dynamic market, the Boston event is an unmissable opportunity.
