“We can help people make small steps,” that’s Aquamar’s belief in sustainability as they can help in bringing change. In part 1, we have Daryl Gormley, CEO of Aquamar Inc, a seafood product brand.
Daryl has been in the food industry for more than 30 years. Throughout his career, he has worked in categories such as meat, coffee, bakeries, etc. Working in the food industry is a privilege because food and food access are critical to our civilization. However, he also realized that there was a lack of innovation.
He is a fan of seafood and saw an opportunity in seafood. Aquamar is a seafood brand that is not vertically integrated, unlike the rest of the industry. Why is that an important fact? Aquamar can source from sustainable sources worldwide, and they can pick and choose the best on behalf of the consumer.
He discusses:
* Gratefulness
* Overview of the brand
* His background
* Aquamar’s structure
* Lack of innovation in the industry
* Reason for fish
* Difference between fish and meat
* Concern about planet
* Innovative perspective
* Plant-based seafood
Join Ramon Vela and Daryl Gormley as they break down the inside story on The Story of a Brand.
