Welcome to IntraFish Podcast Episode No. 24, where Editorial Director Drew Cherry, Executive Editor John Fiorillo, Senior Reporter Dominic Welling and Reporter Lola Navarro discuss the latest news in the seafood sector.

In this episode, we look back at Dominic Welling's recent trip to Japan where he met and interviewed the CEOs of some of the world’s largest seafood companies and learned about their strategies for the future.

Lola Navarro discusses the recent mega-merger between Agrosuper and AquaChile and what impacts this will likely have on the sector.

Finally, John Fiorillo tackles retail seafood brands in the United States, and the reason why they sink or swim.
