Reducing Waste in Seafood Supply Chains to increase Sustainability

Sedna Technologies is an innovative fisheries technology firm working to increase sustainability in the commercial fishing industry with the adoption of innovative technology. By eliminating waste, more harvested product can make it to market and satisfy demand. Sedna is continuing to grow and is beginning to develop predictive analytics platforms to organize and distribute relevant data to clients in order to achieve the objectives mentioned.
With a reduction in waste, higher incomes can be achieved, and a product of high integrity can meet market demand. With growing export markets in Atlantic Canada, we must ensure that non-quota fisheries such as lobster remain sustainable through the proper handling and treatment post-harvest allow for the product to reach end consumers.
