What it is
This is a trade show for the commercial fishing and marine industries of the North Atlantic region. The organizer describes it as a meeting point where buyers and suppliers come together every two years, aimed at "everyone who works in the commercial fishing and marine industries." Exhibitors bring gear, technology and new products for commercial fishing, and the show site carries an exhibitor list, show specials and new-product listings. It is produced by Marketplace Events.
Hall of Fame
Each show hosts the induction ceremony for the Atlantic Canada Marine Industries Hall of Fame, which recognizes people who have made notable contributions to the marine sector in Atlantic Canada. Inductees are named in three categories: Mariners, Processors and Builders. The Navigator magazine presents the ceremony.
