About the aquaculture sector
Ambitions for growth
Adding value to Scotland's economy and local communities
The Scottish aquaculture sector has ambitions for sustainable growth – in terms of production values, capacity, exports, revenue and job creation. SAIC works alongside the sector to help it achieve these ambitions.
SAIC supports this through:
- Connecting industry with academia to encourage collaboration on the priority issues;
- Sharing the insights and knowledge gleaned with the wider sector;
- Attracting additional UK and EU funding into Scottish aquaculture;
- Encouraging new generations into the sector and developing those already working within Scottish aquaculture.
