Great Australian Seafood

Australia’s seafood industry contributes more than $3.4 billion to the economy each year and employs more than 14,000 Australians in the wild-caught and aquaculture sectors, with thousands more employed downstream in post-harvest, transport, retail and foodservice sectors.

As an industry, we play a key role in the country’s primary production and the global food security network.

The Great Australian Seafood brand is lovingly managed by Seafood Industry Australia, the national peak-body representing the Australian seafood industry as a whole.
