Nova Scotia Seafood Accelerator Program aims to support:
- access to new markets through support for eligible companies obtaining a Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) certification to open new export markets or maintain current ones,
- improvement of current seafood value-added products (either in market or a ready-to-commercialize prototype with a waiting market) through technical support, and
- successful commercialization of new Nova Scotia value-added seafood products into recognized markets with sales longevity
