Company Fishing News International

Now in its 45th year, FNI is the leading monthly newspaper for the world's commercial fishing industry. FNI takes a unique business and technical approach to keep its readers informed of the latest fisheries developments - from fish hunting and catching to processing and marketing. Gone are the days when an owner simply bought a basic fishing boat, hired a crew and set to sea in search of a paying catch. Today, fishing vessel owners face a multitude of hurdles when buying, equipping and operating small and large catcher boats.

The increasingly complex fishing industry is managed by international, national and local rules, also it is often guided by strict quota and fishing gear requirements. Fishing vessels now rely on the latest hi-tech satellite systems for navigation, on advanced echo sounders and sonars to find fish, plus equipment to take catches from both very deep and shallow waters. Handling, preparing and packing catches to meet the latest hygiene and marketing standards is now a must for the fish to earn the best prices.

FNI gives fishing vessel operators in both developed and developing countries a new insight into the best of the world's fishing industry developments every month as the industry progresses.
