In this episode, we are grateful to have the founder of Spheric Research, Matt Craze.  Spheric Research’s value proposition in the briefest terms is to provide key insights into the food industry, especially in the areas of seafood and aquaculture.Aquaculture is the world’s fastest growing food sector. It’s an industry that the United Nation’s Food & Agriculture Organization (FAO) sees as critical to meeting the protein needs of a growing world population. However, it’s also a sector that has struggled to shake off a bad reputation for its environmental footprint.Part of the misconception arises from the fact that the seafood industry is fragmented, mostly privately owned and concentrated in little-understood emerging market nations. Matt Craze, who helped establish commodities news desks for Bloomberg LLP in various parts of the world, founded Spheric Research in 2017 to provide key insights into the seafood sector. No major financial news publication — from the Economist to the Financial Times — has ever provided specialist news coverage of this $100 billion+ industry, which explains why seafood is so little understood from the outside.  Support the show
