Welcome

 

Welcome on the redesigned WEFTA website. On this site you will find all information regarding the W(est) E(uropean) F(ish) T(echnologist A(ssociation).

The aim of WEFTA (founded in 1970) is to be an important platform in Europe for institutions engaged in fish processing, applied food science, aquaculture, seafood technology, health effects of seafood consumption and consumer studies.

WEFTA aims at improving safety and quality of seafood on and from the European and other markets through research within this area. Research activities of the WEFTA institutes are coordinated to the benefit of research institutes, the fishery industry, consumers, stakeholders and governments.

WEFTA brings scientists – especially young scientists - together from the various research institutes and encourage them to present their results.

WEFTA holds an annual plenary meeting where research results from both member and non-member institutions are presented. We kindly invite you to attend the meeting. The place to be.
