US tariffs have impacted the world the most in recent days. Even though the Liberation Day tariffs are on hold, the supply chain players in the global seafood industry are exercising caution when strategizing their next steps in trade.

In fact, the tariff affects not only the suppliers and distributors, but also the consumers. Higher seafood prices due to tariffs are going to impact consumers the most, as the large part of the tariff cannot be absorbed by the industry in the long term.

This is especially devastating for people who rely on seafood as a regular part of their diet. The increased cost of seafood can also lead to reduced consumption in the long term.

If you haven't caught up with the seafood tariffs that are happening today (or are too confused by it), you are not alone. Read this blog to find out more.

Geoducks (gooey-duck) have been enjoyed for decades as a culinary luxury in high-end Asian restaurants.

Did you know 95% of global geoduck supply goes to China, Hong Kong and Japan?

This rare delicacy comes at a high price due to its labour-intensive harvesting process, which can be technical and frankly, quite dangerous. 🤿 🌊🦪

🐋🦈 🍣 Luxuriously rich and succulent, the King Salmon is one of the salmon species everyone loves.

Both types of King Salmon are decadently delicious, but did you know there are some interesting differences between the wild-caught origin (from the Pacific Ocean, e.g. Alaska) and farmed origin (from New Zealand, e.g. Marbourough Sounds)

Check out our latest blog before making the decision on which to choose.

Spring heralds the much-anticipated Canadian lobster harvest season, a time when the finest lobsters are brought to shore, offering seafood enthusiasts a delectable experience.

Spring is the year's peak harvesting period. This year, we see over 35,000 metric tons of fresh lobster in regions like the Gulf of St. Lawrence. This is five times of previous years' lobster yield, which is an abundant supply for markets worldwide.

Spring lobsters are renowned for their hard shells, indicating fully matured meat that is both succulent and flavorful. The cold, clean waters of Canada’s Atlantic coast during this season contribute to the lobsters’ sweet and tender meat, making them a gourmet’s delight.

So wait no more. If you are after seriously good lobsters, this is the time to act.

Did you know sea cucumber was once a prized dish for Ming Dynasty royals? Believed to possess incredible medicinal properties, it earned the name 海參 (Ginseng of the Ocean) — a nod to its nourishing benefits, much like the treasured ginseng root. 🫙💎

Packed with collagen, protein, and minerals, sea cucumber was revered for promoting vitality and strength. No wonder it’s still cherished in Chinese cuisine today, symbolising health and prosperity.
