On a visit to Port Seafood, it was great to chat with John and to hear his plans to grow the business, and what a business it is. Supporting locally caught fresh seafood, Muddies to order, high end frozen products and their specialty, delicious platters. It’s great to see local heroes such as Port Seafood showcasing products renowned to our region, a must stop when visiting.

Dealing with a good ol’ fashion wet-season here in the far north presents a number of challenges for seafood producers and the likes. Fishers are dealing with difficulties when riverbanks burst from the shear volume of rainfall, and Coldstores are inundated with water in places it doesn’t belong.
To all those doing a great job in trying conditions this early part of time of year, hats off for continually turning the wheels and bringing us the local seafood we’ve all come to love

What a great day spent wandering down memory lane at the opening of the Babinda Museum, where an exhibit showcasing Supreme Fisheries featured (where it all started for our family business some 50 odd years ago). I felt lucky and privileged to be able to spend this moment with Eva and Greg Richardson (grandmother and uncle) and of course my 2 who had to get in on the act.
A big thanks to the Babinda Taskforce for getting this museum project off the ground.

This iconic seafood restaurant has it all, from the connection you get dining on the waterfront, to their mouth-watering menu. But the standout for me on our latest visit to Omeros, once again is the dine-in service. Their knowledge of the menu and its produce to their welcoming attitude, nothing short of first class! The culinary legacy within hospitality and its connection with our seafood industry is lead by passionate people. Cheers to you🥂

The Queensland Parliament’s Committee for State Development and Regional Industries public hearings on the Food (Labelling of Seafood) Bill 2021 was held in Cairns today. The purpose of the Bill, proposed by Mr Robbie Katter MP, Member for Traeger, is to raise consumer awareness around the origins of seafood being purchased and consumed, and to subsequently support the Australian and Queensland seafood industry and the local jobs it supports. I joined Jo-Anne Ruscoe - ABFA and Shawn McAtamney - ISP at the hearing. All in all it was a very positive day and a positive step towards empowering Queenslanders so that they can make informed decisions about what they eat.
