Fishing businesses and marine organisations in Scotland’s coastal communities are set to share £13m from Marine Fund Scotland’s latest round of funding.
A total of 60 projects will receive grants ranging from £7,000 to £1.2m.
These include modernising a salmon and trout processing facility in order to reduce energy and water use, installing solar panels at a seafood cold store to cut back on its carbon footprint, and increasing process capacity building for a shellfish producer to meet the growing demand from markets in the US and Asia.
