WELCOME TO AFTA
Australia’s fishing trade is a great industry, one we should be proud of and one we should be willing to protect. However, AFTA can only keep protecting and promoting our industry, if it is supported by the industry, this means through membership and the annual trade show.

Western Australia celebrates World Fisheries Day
As we mark World Fisheries Day today, we can be proud of both the economic success of our commercial fisheries and work of the recreational sector to ensure we will have fish for the future. The WA Government has proudly supported the MSC certification of 11 of the State’s fisheries, recognising the economic return generated by sustainably managed fisheries. 2021 has been a great year for WA fisheries – with the annual Status Reports showing that 98 per cent of our State’s fisheries are completely removed from any potential impact of fishing and WA being declared Australia’s foremost fishing State – so we have plenty to celebrate today ….
