The Sea Products Development Project aims to enhance seafood processing process and capability for the stakeholders; raise the standards of processed seafood products to meet buyers' expectations; and establish a network of processed seafood producers and distributors in the 17 provinces. The project is also designed to tackle community and environmental issues as well as lift the community quality of life. The improvement of seafood and processed seafood product quality is the priority, for competitiveness in domestic and international levels.
