Held every two years and hosted by the Queensland Seafood Marketers Association, the Queensland Seafood Industry Awards showcase the Queensland seafood industry; its value to the national economy, its professionalism, and its commitment to supplying some of the finest seafood in the world to local, national and international markets.

It does this through recognising and celebrating the positive contributions of individuals, partnerships, businesses and organisations towards a sustainable and profitable Australian seafood industry.

As is the case in previous years, State Award winners will go on to the National Seafood Industry Awards presented this year in Brisbane at the 2022 Seafood Directions Conference.
