Seafood from Norway joins National Fish & Chip Day celebrations

Seafood from Norway is once again pledging its support for National Fish & Chip Day as the event reaches its 10th anniversary.

On Friday 6th June, the Seafood from Norway team will join hosts NEODA and event partners at its London roadshow, held at Trinity House, where they will invite the public to join the festivities and enjoy free fish and chips.

NEODA will also be running a series of social media competitions in the run up to the big day for both operators and consumers to get involved in with the chance of winning National Fish & Chip Day merchandise.   

As a long-standing supplier of sustainably sourced cod and haddock to UK fish and chip shops, Norway values its close relationship with the sector. National Fish & Chip Day is a meaningful occasion to show support and celebrate the industry that brings this much-loved dish to communities across the country.  

Victoria Braathen, UK director of the Norwegian Seafood Council, comments:  “Fish and chips is an incredibly cherished part of British culture, and we’re proud to play a role in supporting the people and businesses who make it so special. Norway and the UK has a long-held seafood partnership, and we’re honoured to be supplying high quality, responsibly sourced whitefish to the sector. National Fish & Chip Day is a fantastic celebration of this iconic dish, and we’re pleased to stand behind NEODA and the wider industry in marking such an important milestone.”

Gary Lewis, president of NEODA, adds:  “This year marks a significant milestone for National Fish and Chip Day as we celebrate its 10th anniversary! Over the past decade, we’ve seen incredible support from fish and chip shops across the UK, and we’re thrilled to continue honouring this iconic British dish. Fish and chip shops are at the heart of our communities, and getting involved in this celebration is a fantastic opportunity to showcase the quality and tradition of this family favourite.  We encourage all shops to take part and share in the pride and joy that National Fish and Chip Day represents.”
