Follow us on Twitter @SeafoodSummit 3
As you will see from the programme, this year’s Summit has a particular focus on aquaculture and on the outlook in some of the key countries supplying the UK, with some interesting speakers from Russia, Iceland and Norway. We are also opening the event with a celebration of the best food that Lincolnshire has to offer. Seafood of course will feature high on the menu, but also many other new and exciting products from local producers for you to enjoy.
Next year there will be no Humber Summit as it will be replaced by the 2015 World
Seafood Congress which will be hosted by Seafish in Grimsby.
This important international event will attract hundreds of
seafood professionals from all around the world to discuss issues such as sustainability but also how to bring skills into the seafood industry. It
will be a great opportunity to network with knowledgeable and influential seafood industry
representatives and to build international contacts.
World Seafood Congress will be officially launched at our evening reception the night before the Summit this year, where we look forward to giving an update on how the programme for the event is shaping up. Our events team will be on hand at our evening reception and will be able to assist you with any questions about the Congress as well as taking your registration for the event itself. I’m sure you’ll agree with me that in hosting the Congress, as well as the Humber Seafood Summit Grimsby is stepping into the spotlight as a global centre of excellence for our industry.
For now, I welcome you to
the Humber Seafood Summit 2014 and hope that you enjoy the event.
Paul WilliamsChief Executive, Seafish

KEYNOTE SPEAKER
Mike BerthetDirector of Fish & Seafood, M&J Seafood
A qualified Chef who has over 30 years of experience in Fish and Seafood, Mike represents M&J Seafood on sustainability issues and ensures our passion and commitment to responsible sourcing is maintained. Working with the Industry, Governments, NGO’s and Fishermen to identify the drivers for consistent advancement of safe sustainable fishing and connecting the Food Service Industry seamlessly, end to end, to embrace the necessary changes for a ‘Perpetual Harvest’ that can feed this and future generations. As well as developing (along with the Fish and Seafood Team) the direction and policies of both M&J Seafood and the wider Brakes Group, Mike also represents Food Service on a range of committees such as the Prince Charles’ International Sustainability Unit, Seafish Common Language Group, and City and Guilds Hospitality and Advisory Group and ensures our passion and commitment to responsible sourcing is maintained.
With provenance, sustainability and local
sourcing continuing to feature
heavily on menus across the
country we are seeing an
increase in demand for fish
sourced in and around home
shores at the expense of more
exotic species.
Chefs are becoming aware
of what is available on
their own doorstep partly
through innovation and menu
development and partly through
companies such as M&J Seafood
actively promoting under used,
but equally delicious, sustainable
local species.
When it comes to sustainability
the key thing is getting chefs
to understand exactly what
sustainable means. Some think
it is all about quality and others
that it means that something is
always available — which doesn’t
really take into consideration
the issues of seasonality and if
there will be enough stock in
the sea of that species for future
generations! We do a lot of
training sessions with chefs and
like to refer to it as a ‘perpetual
harvest’. It’s a message we use
a lot and one which we feel not
only describes sustainability very
well but also makes it easy for
chefs to understand. Keeping
chefs informed of the availability
of locally caught fish is the
reason behind our ‘Skippers
Catch’ initiative which keeps
them up to date with who’s
caught what and where on a
regular basis allowing them to
select the finest fish and seafood
landed each morning.
Back of house I don’t think that
we do nearly enough in this
country to train young, up and
coming chefs on how to use the
abundance of fish and seafood
available in the waters around
the UK. Lecturers at catering
colleges do a great job on
limited resources but a lack of
government funding means that
the industry is not as well served
as it should be.
When it comes to front of
house the serving staff have an
important role to play. If they
are well briefed on the menu
descriptors and are allowed to
try the dishes they will become
really enthused and describe the
dishes in a personal way that will
capture the diners’ imagination.
Customers want to know what they are buying and love the story of where, how, who and when the fish was caught. With this in mind, choose your supplier carefully — make sure you know where your fish has been caught, how it has been caught and how it got to you!
Experiment with under-utilised species. A good way of doing this is the ‘duo’ method. For
example chef could serve a fish that the consumer is very
familiar with, such as Salmon, alongside a less familiar one
such as Hake. Customers are more likely to try something different when served in this way because they know that even if it turns out that they don’t like
the Hake — which I am sure they will! — they won’t go hungry.
Remember that fish and seafood
has gained, and continues to gain, massive presence on the menu — it’s what helps to bring diners back time and time again, which is a restaurant’s lifeblood.
With over 250 species available at any one time it’s the perfect way to ring the changes and
keep a menu fresh.

Dr Baukje de RoosUniversity of Aberdeen
Dr Baukje de Roos is an internationally recognised nutritionist working within the Rowett Institute of Nutrition & Health at the University of Aberdeen. In the past 20 years she has executed a large range of human intervention studies to assess the health properties of dietary fatty acids (such as omega-3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acids) and bioactive plant polyphenols (such as flavan-3-ols from cocoa and phenolic acids from olives). She assesses the health effects of dietary bioactives by measurement of validated risk markers of cardiovascular disease (for example plasma lipid levels, platelet function, blood pressure) but increasingly also by measurement of novel health and resilience markers that have been identified through nutrigenomics technologies.
Her expertise in the area of diet and health has formed the basis of significant contracts and consultancies with various large food companies (Stephan Nutrition, Cognis, MacPhie of Glenbervie, Provexis, Kelloggs), the food and drink support sector (Food and Drink Innovation Service), and national UK television (Channel 4’s Food Hospital Series). Baukje de Roos is the Program Leader of the University of Aberdeen’s Theme ‘Pathways to a Healthy Life’. This Theme is one of the four interdisciplinary Themes initiated as part of the University of Aberdeen’s strategic plan, aiming to facilitate and strengthen interdisciplinary collaborations that address the complex mechanisms by which individuals, lifestyle, the local community, socio-economic and environmental conditions affect healthy ageing.
