Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute has launched a new web-based directory designed to bring buyers and suppliers of Alaska seafood together around the world.
The Alaska Seafood Online Marketplace, which replaces ASMI’S Suppliers Directory, allows businesses to create custom company profiles, list products and share product specifications with others online.
Consumers and seafood buyers can search the marketplace by species, sales region and even contact suppliers directly within the platform. Buyers looking for specific seafood items can also create an account to post specific product needs or purchase requests. The new “For Consumers” section simplifies the search process by providing quick access to companies that direct ship Alaska seafood to individuals.
ASMI’s digital marketing manager, Tanna Peters, said the institute is looking forward to helping new suppliers and buyers utilize the Marketplace as it continues to grow. The network is available at https://suppliers.alaskaseafood.org/. For questions or help creating accounts and business profiles contact info.request@alaskaseafood.org.
ASMI is a partnership between the state of Alaska and the Alaska seafood industry that promotes the benefits of the state’s wild, sustainable seafood and seafood industry education. Nearly 60% of all wild seafood and 90-95% of wild salmon harvested in the United States is harvested in Alaska.
