Urner Barry Publications, Inc. Acquires Annual Report on the United States Seafood Industry

Urner Barry is pleased to announce it has recently acquired the Annual Report on the United States Seafood Industry from H.M. Johnson and Associates – a natural complement to our existing suite of products and services.

Those interested in fisheries, aquaculture and seafood know the relevance of this anthology, and look forward to the release of the Annual Report each year. 

This valuable compilation is filled with U.S. government figures and statistics which not only take into account the world seafood supply, but the U.S. seafood supply, U.S. seafood trade, seafood processing, individual commodity supply, important economic indicators as well as consumer demands and attitudes. It is a must have for all seafood industry professionals or anyone interested in analyzing the long term seafood trends and developing marketing plans and strategies. 

Urner Barry has enjoyed a long association with Howard Johnson and has been a proud contributor over the years to this complete reference. We are delighted to be adding such a functional planning tool to our collection. 

"Having worked closely with Urner Barry for over 14 years on compiling the Annual Report, I am delighted that they will be working on a new and improved version." – Howard M. Johnson, Editor and Publisher H.M. Johnson & Associates.
