Fish Finder

Australia’s seafood industry needs your help.

The coronavirus poses a significant threat to the future of the Australian seafood industry, an industry which employs thousands of Aussies and countless more downstream, but you can support our fishing community without even leaving your couch – by eating delicious, healthy Aussie seafood. It’s as simple as that!

Many of our commercial fishers and fishmongers have diversified their businesses to offer delivery, or easy collection methods to help get Australian seafood into homes, and bellies. Although the coronavirus has changed our day-to-day lives, it doesn’t need to change the way we eat.

Seafood is packed full of omega-3s which reduce inflammation, support your immune system, and can even help reduce stress and anxiety — things we all need right now.

As an industry we felt the impact of the coronavirus almost immediately due to the necessary restrictions placed on the foodservice industry and the closure of export markets. But, this has meant we’ve lost the majority of our distribution network within three months. Resilience and hard work will be the key to rebuilding our sector, but community support is essential to our immediate survival.

SIA has developed a simple Fish Finder directory to help consumers find and purchase fresh or cooked Australian seafood online or direct from retailers for delivery or pick-up. Meaning the community can support us without even leaving their couch.
