GAPP to Host Wild Alaska Pollock Annual Meeting

Processors of wild Alaska Pollock will gather in Seattle, Wash., on Oct. 29 for an industry update on the progress of strategic initiatives of the Association of Genuine Alaska Pollock Producers.

“We see this as an incredible opportunity to provide our members, and the broader wild Alaska Pollock industry, with an update on GAPP initiatives, but also the forum to share ideas and celebrate our perfect protein,” said Craig Morris, chief executive officer of GAPP.

The meeting at the Seattle World Trade Center, heralded by GAPP as its first industry-wide annual meeting, will also feature speakers offering updates on the state of the industry and opportunities for building demand for and increasing awareness of wild Alaska Pollock, in addition to industry networking opportunities.

The association’s board members recognized “that we need opportunities to bring our industry together and collaborate, but moreover, a recognition that we have a lot to share and celebrate and I look forward to our first-ever annual meeting accomplishing those goals,” Morris said.

A full agenda and registration information will be forthcoming and those interested in helping to sponsor the event are also asked to contact Morris at Craig.Morris@alaskapollock.org.
