Seafood Industry Victoria is a non-profit organisation whose members are involved in the harvesting, processing, wholesaling, retailing and exporting of seafood in Victoria.
Seafood Industry Victoria is the peak body for the commercial fishing industry. In our capacity as the peak body we liaise with State government, media, environmental groups and other marine stakeholders on behalf of our member's best interests.
The major role of the Seafood Industry Victoria is to disseminate the flow of information from these groups to industry and provide appropriate responses. On behalf of industry we respond to a range of subjects including fisheries legislation, licensing and access issues, development and licensing of new fisheries, marine parks, fisheries management plans, native title, quota allocation, environmental issues, introduction of quality assurance programs, representation on industry training boards, developing educational materials for school students and the general public, research and development applications, media inquiries, press releases and marketing and promotion of seafood products.
Seafood Industry Victoria will continue building and informing a united and ecologically sustainable and thriving seafood industry valued by the Victorian community.
Our Strategic Plan is built around 8 objectives, centered on the themes of leadership and innovation, member service, business growth, people, fiscal responsibility and operational issues. These themes reflect our corporate mission, "to continue building a united, ecologically sustainable and thriving seafood industry valued by the Victorian community."
Our strategic plan lays out SIV's long-term goals and will guide us to measure how far we have come towards achieving our goals and to recognize where we need to adjust our approaches or directions to achieve better results. In addition, the Plan will provide a basis from which SIV can focus on the highest priority and ensure that we represent our members to the best of our ability.
