Falkland Islands fishing company Fortuna Ltd has become a sponsor and research partner in a PhD student ship on southern blue whiting. The Falkland Islands Government fisheries Department (FIFD) and the South Atlantic Environmental Research Institute (SAERI) are also collaborators in this research project.
Falklands’ fish is a “highly traded commodity” and customers are excited about secure and direct access to it, stated Director Fortuna Fishing Company Ltd Stuart Wallace this week.
