French frozen seafood processor Escal said it is benefiting from the trend towards healthier eating in France.
Escal posted an 8 percent increase in revenue to €143 million ($161 million) in 2018, as French consumers turn towards healthier options encouraged by campaigns to eat seafood twice a week.
“This is favorable for us because seafood cocktails or fish fillets do not carry too many calories or fat,” Escal Marketing Manager Alexia Muller told IntraFish.
Roughly two-thirds of the company's sales come from seafood.
