August 11, 2015 — Three years after a group of Gulf seafood leaders met in the conference room of a downtown New Orleans hotel, the Gulf Seafood Institute (GSI) – the recognized voice of the Gulf seafood community – enters a new year with membership expansion open to businesses, organizations and individuals across the Gulf, as well as around the world.
After a very successful two-year Founding Member period, GSI is now initiating its standing, long-term dues structure recently approved by the Board of Directors. With this new dues structure, GSI will be well positioned to solicit new members as the organization continues to grow in numbers and scope.
GSI members sit alongside other Gulf seafood leaders in a forum where positive solutions to our region’s most pressing challenges are developed with a spirit of unity, transparency and sustainability. GSI continues to recruit leaders from across the spectrum of the Gulf seafood supply chain who share its vision for a successful and sustainable Gulf-wide community
“This new dues structure will allow GSI to recruit the best and brightest leaders from throughout the Gulf seafood community and beyond,” said the organization’s Executive Director Margaret Henderson. “It will allow GSI to continue our work to develop positive solutions to our community’s most pressing challenges.”
