It was a pleasure to explain how powerful circular economy can be, to retain as long as possible the value of the packaging we are using to transport automotive parts to our assembly plants.

The Azores Islands are subtropical regions; The constant rain, the humid and moderate climate along with the fertile lands make the islands green and full of vegetation. While deforestation becomes a threat in many parts of the world, here in the Azores, forests are still growing annually. The Marques Britas, SA invests in the island's raw materials and invests in its conservation and sustainability, especially in forests. While best known for being a construction company, the Marques group and much more.

I am really happy to see this. This is the only way we can develop our country and continent. Creating and building viable businesses and helping them to expand their capacity and the number of people they employ. We need to shift our attention from politicians and refocus on entrepreneurs and businesses. We need a change in policy which is focused on Economic Diplomacy and involves all stakeholders in ensuring we provide, maintain and protect the conduisive environment that businesses in Ghana need to thrive. The only way for Ghana and other African countries is viable businesses and industries to provide not just the needed revenue from taxes but employment for the vast youthful population. We can only develop when sustainable livelihoods for the people, and peaceful but vibrant environment for higher productivity become the foundation of our national policies and programmes. We can develop if we make it our focus and ensure that politicians who come into office work effectively and efficiently with the resources we have, especially the Human Resources. The rate at which young people are struggling for work and those that are leaving our countries are worrying. We need to have a very strong centre-ground policy focus which is based on state and community positions of interests on socioeconomic development, and which will never be compromised for any groups of politicians no matter what political party they are. We are Ghanaian and this is our positions…….. joke with them and you will never vote for you must be our mantra. The world will never wait for us if we keep not knowing our interest and positions with politicians Just like any work environment, maintaining or getting a job is based on your level of productivity. I salute the leadership, management and workers of Bel Aquah. Your investment will surely be rewarded by the good people of Ghana. 🇬🇭

We're just back from Barcelona and the Seafood Expo Global (SEG24). As always, a whirlwind of seafood conversations, stakeholders, initiatives, conference sessions and most impressively exhibitors! We started the week with a team face-to-face core group meeting, where the big topics included our forthcoming public consultation, discussions on our ongoing beta trials as well as continuing ongoing conversations on governance, funding and staffing. Throughout the 3-day Seafood Expo (23-25 April) we had numerous meetings with new and existing partners, contacts and initiatives. The underlaying theme to all those conversations was small-scale fisheries and how to work collaboratively to enhance their visibility within spaces like these and generally in the global seafood market. We're most certainly tired but happy to say that after Barcelona we have many new and/or deepened collaborations, new opportunities and a to-do list to keep them all moving! Thanks to everyone who made time to meet and who has helped inspire and inform our next steps! #barcelona #seafood #SustainableFishing #Sustainability #OceanAction #FairTrade #OceanLover #MarineLife #Seafood #SocialResponsibility #SupplyChains #OurOceans #Fisheries #SmallScaleFisheries #EquitableOceans #CoastalCommunities #SustainableSeas #SmallScaleFishers #FoodTechnology

We recently welcomed the incredible members of Aliança Kirimurê at our Iberostar Waves Bahia and Selection Praia de Forte Hotels in Brazil. This dedicated collective of fishers and shellfish-gatherers from Brazil's Baía de Todos os Santos region joined us to gain a deeper understanding of our framework for responsible purchasing of seafood products and to refine the logistics for purchasing community fishery products. Aliança Kirimurê supports more than 200 families, 75% of whom are women, enhancing the quality and sustainability of seafood available in the region, setting fair prices, and following sustainable fishing guidelines to promote social, human, and environmental development. Since 2022, our partnership has led to improvements in processing facilities and distribution channels, fostering a more sustainable fishing industry and increasing demand for responsible seafood. As a part of our Lifting up Local program, this collaboration is crucial in helping us reach our goal of sourcing 100% responsibly sourced seafood by 2025. Currently, we are at 83% globally and 50% in Brazil with a big push to move this target in 2024. By working closely with local producers we ensure legality and traceability of local seafood products, the maintenance of healthy stocks and provide access to markets for small-scale artisanal fishers. The partnership also includes promoting other Aliança products, such as crafts, that allow the community to have a source of income during the months of heavy rain when fishing isn’t possible. Important collaborations like these allows us to offer our guests authentic local flavors while positively impacting the livelihoods of those who depend on this vital industry. #SustainableSeafood #LiftingUpLocal #ResponsibleTourism #CommunityEmpowerment #AliançaKirimurê #Brazil

🎉 Telegiornale Regionale(TGR) reported LuckiBot in Abruzzo's use of the restaurant. TGR is the regional news television channel of Radiotelevisione Italiana (RAI). Thanks for the support of our partners. 🤝 From the television report, it is evident that LuckiBot delivers smoothly, even for a bowl of soup, and assists service staff in collecting dirty dishes in restaurant, helping the restaurant owner enhance operational efficiency. The restaurant owner says, "Introducing technology into restaurants will be a great help; we can optimize the workflow to achieve more with the same resources."
