Seafish has announced the projects and businesses to benefit from more than one million pounds allocated by the 2008 Industry Project Fund. The Industry Project Fund was instigated in 2007 to support innovation and foster growth in all areas of the UK seafood industry.

Having increased funding from £700,000 in 2007 to £1.2 million for 2008 as a result of a large increase in the number of first rate applications from seafood companies, the Industry Project Fund is awarding 34 new projects with funding for 2008.
