Funding available to support restaurants serving up seafood from Alaska

We are delighted to announce the launch of a new initiative to support the hospitality industry during these challenging times.

Our initiative will provide promotional funding for restaurants that feature, or are interested in featuring, Alaska seafood on their menus. We are looking for restaurants to request funding for marketing initiatives that boost sales of Alaska seafood menu items.

Seafood from Alaska is all wild and natural, being caught in some of the world’s most crystalline waters. Alaska’s sustainability credentials are second to none; fisheries are MSC and RFM certified.

For restaurants seeking to switch to alternative species, wild Alaska pollock is the perfect substitute for cod, and yellowfin sole is a delicious alternative to species such as dover sole. Species that are imported into the United Kingdom from Alaska include black cod, king crab, five types of wild salmon, wild Alaska pollock and yellowfin sole.

We hope that by offering this marketing funding, we can encourage restaurants to include Alaska seafood on their menus and help restaurants to sell more fish.

For more information regarding funding opportunities or for information and samples of Alaska seafood species, contact asmi@wearelotus.co.uk .
