West Coast Seafood | Application Preview
West Coast Seafood is seeking government grants to support various aspects of their business, including marketing, online advertising, licensing fees, payroll, operational costs, fuel expenses, farmer market expenses, education, and packaging.
Their business plan focuses on expanding marketing strategies, enhancing their mission and business model, and recruiting more fishermen who share their values. By providing competitive pricing for local fishermen's fresh catch, they aim to create an alternative to existing monopolized markets.
The funding is justified by the potential to create jobs, promote sustainable fishing practices, and operate with integrity. Unlike competitors such as Pacific Seafood, Fishhawk Fisheries, and Ocean Beauty, West Coast Seafood stands out by offering fishermen significantly better prices, which enables them to better support their families and communities.
