About us

UCN (Undercurrent News) was founded in London in 2012 by journalists Tom Seaman and Eva Tallaksen, in a bid for quality and independent reporting.

The mission

Our purpose is two-fold. Thanks to our industry knowledge and team of multi-lingual reporters, we strive to cover the major news and trends in the sector, ranging from daily business events and prices movements, to legal cases, mergers and acquisitions and in-depth pieces.

As part of this we bring breaking news and identify key trends, often well ahead of the curve. Our spotlight page is a good place to see some of the topics we're currently covering.

Our second focus is on providing data. A lack of readily available and reliable data is a key issue facing the seafood sector. Our prices dashboard offers a unique insight into raw material prices for globally traded commodities such as Chinese shrimp or Russian cod, while our reports page aims at highlighting all major research projects relevant to this industry.

We always want to hear your feedback and if you want to get in touch, head to our contact page and drop us a line.
