Svensk Fisk is the main association in Sweden that is trying to channel information about seafood to consumers. They have become a very central link between seafood industry, chefs, wholesalers, regulatory units like the Swedish Board of Fisheries and consumers. The main aim is to stimulate consumers to eat fish by trying to make it fun, simple and interesting. They have worked hard to remove the belief among consumers that fish is difficult to cook. They are also very efficient in spreading information and news about seafood to the various actors of the seafood chain.
Every year in the fall they organize a big seafood week and award ceremony with international price winners. Chalmers University has been active in this week almost every year, and it is a very positive event.
