SENA'23 has been a success. Many people from all over the world have joined in Massachusetts's capital to have a global overview of the seafood industry, We Are Aquaculture was also there. For our co-workers, SENA'23 was a great experience in the 1790 stand.

The exhibition floor showed a positive and comfortable environment. Getting back to normal made a difference at this year's exhibition, taking a concern away from the attendees. Also this year the expo hall has been packed with seafood and processing companies. It provides a wide variety of fresh, frozen, canned, value-added, processed, and packaged products. The Expo has market-leading processing and packaging equipment, as well as logistics and other service suppliers.

Moreover, the conferences are a key part of the event and had more than 50 professionals and expert speakers that conducted talks about diverse areas. From aquaculture to traceability and transparency, there were huge trending topics for the audience.
