      <description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;em style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;Partnership with Atlanta-based Inland Seafood Offers Greater Availability of &lt;br /&gt;Verlasso Salmon to Southeastern U.S. Markets&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MIAMI, Oct. 10, 2012 &lt;/strong&gt;&amp;#8211; &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Verlasso&amp;#174;, the world&amp;#8217;s first provider of harmoniously raised fish, continues to gain momentum through a new partnership with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.inlandseafood.com&quot;&gt;Inland Seafood&lt;/a&gt;, an Atlanta-based seafood distributor of more than 1,000 fresh, frozen, smoked and specialty seafood items. Through this new collaboration, Verlasso&amp;#174; Harmoniously Raised Salmon will now be available to seafood lovers who are looking for high-quality, healthy, sustainably raised food throughout the southeastern United States. Verlasso&amp;#174; salmon also is available at retailers and restaurants through multiple &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.verlasso.com/where-to-buy&quot;&gt;regional distributors&lt;/a&gt; and direct-to-retail partnerships across the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#8220;At Inland Seafood, we pride ourselves on bringing our customers the finest and most innovative seafood products available on the market.  We see Verlasso&amp;#174; as a revolutionary leader in sustainable aquaculture, and we are even more excited by the great taste and quality of the fish,&amp;#8221; said Chris Rosenberger, president of Inland Seafood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With a responsibility to balance the needs of the growing population and the preservation of ocean life, Verlasso&amp;#174; has developed a comprehensive solution to many of aquaculture&amp;#8217;s historic challenges.  Most notably, through its ground-breaking feeding practices, Verlasso&amp;#174; requires 75 percent fewer feeder fish to raise Omega-3 rich salmon. In traditional farms, salmon receive Omega-3s from fish meal and fish oil provided by wild caught feeder fish, putting a significant strain on our oceans. While the average &amp;#8220;fish in, fish out&amp;#8221; ratio for fish oil and fish meal for salmon farms is about four pounds of feeder fish to produce one pound of salmon, Verlasso&amp;#174; has achieved an industry-first &amp;#8220;fish in, fish out&amp;#8221; ratio of 1:1 for both fish oil and fish meal. The differentiating Verlasso&amp;#174; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.verlasso.com/farming/fish-in-fish-out&quot;&gt;1:1 &amp;#8220;fish in, fish out&amp;#8221;&lt;/a&gt; for fish oil calculation is guided by the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.asc-aqua.org/index.cfm?act=tekst.item&amp;amp;iid=2&amp;amp;lng=1&quot;&gt;Aquaculture Stewardship Council&amp;#8217;s&lt;/a&gt; salmon standards created during the &lt;a href=&quot;http://worldwildlife.org/&quot;&gt;World Wildlife Fund&amp;#8217;s&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://worldwildlife.org/industries/farmed-seafood&quot;&gt;Salmon Aquaculture Dialogues&lt;/a&gt; and has been third-party verified by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.verlasso.com/conversation/article/trust-but-verify-tips-for-selecting-sustainable-seafood&quot;&gt;Det Norske Veritas&lt;/a&gt; (DNV).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#8220;As Verlasso&amp;#174; celebrates its first anniversary, we&amp;#8217;re proud to continue steady growth through a partnership with Inland that will extend our brand to consumers in the Southeast who care about sustainable, Omega-3-rich salmon that is delicious,&amp;#8221; said Scott Nichols, director of Verlasso. &amp;#8220;Inland Seafood shares our passion of delivering high-quality seafood to its retailer customers and consumers, while sourcing fish in a way that ensures the availability of seafood for generations to come. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more information about Verlasso&amp;#174; harmoniously raised salmon, for sales inquiries and to find additional locations where Verlasso&amp;#174; can be purchased, visit &lt;a href=&quot;www.verlasso.com&quot;&gt;www.verlasso.com&lt;/a&gt;.

The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.inlandseafood.com/experience&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://WWW.INLANDSEAFOOD.COM/EXPERIENCE&quot;&gt;10&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; Annual Inland Seafood/Quality Wine &amp;amp; Spirits Food and Wine Experience 2012&lt;/a&gt; will take place on September 10&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; in Downtown Atlanta and promises to maintain its reputation as one of the greatest food events of the year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Inland Seafood &amp;amp; Quality Wine Experience is in its 10th year, and is unlike your standard, run-of-the-mill food show. These two culinary powerhouses join forces to showcase the best food and wine the world has to offer. &lt;em&gt;&amp;#8220;This has become a staple in the culinary world in the southeast,&amp;#8221; &lt;/em&gt;says Chef Kevin Rathbun,&lt;em&gt; &amp;#8220;this is the sort of event that happens behind the scenes that helps develop a city&amp;#8217;s personality.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Based on food and wine pairings, the Experience was originally crafted for Atlanta chefs to help create the proper combination of dishes and libations for the upcoming year&amp;#8217;s menus. However in the past ten years, the show has grown to attract food service professionals from all over the Southeast. Show goers have the chance to sample some of the best seafood and specialty items paired with the proper wines and spirits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Inland Seafood/Quality Wine Experience is much more than the average food show, featuring vendors from across the globe. Through Inland Seafood and &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.qwine.com&quot;&gt;Quality Wine &amp;amp; Spirits&lt;/a&gt;, these dedicated fishermen, farmers, winemakers and distillers distribute their top quality products to restaurants, grocery stores, hotels and wine shops throughout Atlanta. It is because of their service and dedication combined with the creativity and innovation of the chefs who take their products and turn them into culinary masterpieces that Atlanta has become one of the most highly regarded food cities in the Southeast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#8220;W&lt;em&gt;e love being able to bring our city together over the great food and wine it has to offer. Every year the show gets better and better&lt;/em&gt;,&amp;#8221; said &lt;a href=&quot;www.inlandseafood.com&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.inlandseafood.com&quot;&gt;Inland Seafood&lt;/a&gt; President Chris Rosenberger. &amp;#8220;&lt;em&gt;Inland Seafood and Quality Wine make a great team, and we have some exciting things in store for this year.

      </title>
      <link>http://www.inlandseafood.com/Inland-Seafood-Celebrates-35-Years-of-Innovation</link>
      <description>&lt;strong style=&quot;font-size: 10pt&quot;&gt;FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 8pt&quot;&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-size: 10pt&quot;&gt;SOUTHEASTERN SEAFOOD DISTRIBUTOR CELEBRATES 35 YEARS OF INNOVATION &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;INLAND SEAFOOD HAS REDEFINED WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A VENDOR IN FOOD SERVICE &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JUNE 2012 &amp;#8211; Atlanta, GA &amp;#8211; This summer, Atlanta-based seafood distributor Inland Seafood celebrates its 35th year of providing the Southeastern United States with not only the freshest seafood, but a fresh take on the business behind it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Born and bred in the heart of the South, Inland Seafood is proud of its rich history. But their road to success has proven that it takes more than deep roots to grow a single-building operation into one of the largest seafood distribution companies in the country. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the past 35 years, Inland Seafood has been at the top of their game when it comes to business and product innovation. With the development of their own Inland Seafood Certified Premium Quality Assurance Program, they have shown their dedication to holding not only themselves, but also their vendors and suppliers to the highest standards of quality, which was affirmed when the company received its Safe Quality Food 2000 Level 3 Certification from the Safe Quality Food Institute in 2011. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From a vision to expand their product line, Inland Market&amp;#8212;a line of gourmet seafood entr&amp;#233;es and appetizers for the retail division&amp;#8212;was born. Soon to follow were Heritage Meats by Inland and Artisan by Inland, adding other proteins and a high-quality selection of cheese, oils, mushrooms and specialty foods to the company&amp;#8217;s already extensive wholesale inventory. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;#8220;It is because of the dedication and innovation of our team of employees and the support from the city of Atlanta that we have been able to expand to cities like New Orleans, Birmingham, and Charlotte and are able to distribute our products on a global scale&amp;#8221; &lt;/em&gt;said Inland Seafood President, Chris Rosenberger. &lt;em&gt;&amp;#8220;We have grown spatially and creatively over the past 35 years and we look forward to 35 more.&amp;#8221; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And Inland Seafood doesn&amp;#8217;t stop there. From the development of the Inland Seafood App complete with buying guide and glossary to their widely-popular annual Inland Seafood Experience, an upscale food show in which they partner with Quality Wine &amp;amp; Spirits, Inland Seafood has redefined what it means to be a wholesaler in the food industry. With a creative team of fish lovers where ideas are constantly in motion, Inland Seafood is a company whose innovation and drive won&amp;#8217;t be slowing down any time soon. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To learn more about Inland Seafood&amp;#8217;s innovation, growth and contributions to the Industry over the past 35 years visit www.inlandseafood.com. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Media Contact: &lt;br /&gt;Pomp Agency &lt;br /&gt;Rodney Fund &lt;br /&gt;rodney@pompagency.com &lt;br /&gt;(404) 975-0296 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &apos;Arial&apos;,&apos;sans-serif&apos;&quot;&gt;Inland Seafood has been in business for 35 years. As the largest seafood distributor in the Southeast and the most innovative company in the industry, Food Safety and Quality have long been Inland Seafood&amp;#8217;s top priorities. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &apos;Arial&apos;,&apos;sans-serif&apos;&quot;&gt;&amp;#8220;Our goal in maintaining relationships with our customers is to be able to assure them that they are buying the highest quality products available,&amp;#8221;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &apos;Arial&apos;,&apos;sans-serif&apos;&quot;&gt; said Inland Seafood&amp;#8217;s President Chris Rosenberger,&lt;em&gt; &amp;#8220;to do so, Safety and Quality Control must be present in every aspect of business.&amp;#8221;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &apos;Arial&apos;,&apos;sans-serif&apos;&quot;&gt;From using only the best raw materials, to monitoring the facilities and equipment, to individually training the people who are physically responsible for producing and packing them, Inland Seafood is constantly seeking ways to further educate and improve. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &apos;Arial&apos;,&apos;sans-serif&apos;&quot;&gt;With their Level 3 Certification,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &apos;Arial&apos;,&apos;sans-serif&apos;&quot;&gt;indicating a comprehensive development and implementation of Food Safety and Quality Management Systems, Inland Seafood is now among a very small number of companies with the accomplishment of adding the SQF Level 3 Trade Mark to all of their certified products.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;SEAFOOD.COM NEWS by Mike Ramsingh - Feb 27. 2012&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inland Seafood, based in Atlanta, has its own certification scheme that promises total traceability for all its products. The company also has its own iphone and smart phone app. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Founded in 1977 by current CEO Joel Knox in Atlanta, Inland Seafood serves over 4,000 foodservice and grocery customers in the Southeast United States throughout the distribution chain. With about $200 million in yearly sales, Inland markets over 1,000 products with their &quot;Inland Seafood Certified&quot; (ISC) seal of approval that assures customers the product has been through Inland&apos;s customized quality assurance program. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For Inland, their ISC program demands high quality, sustainability and traceability from their vendors, which has resulted in Inland developing tight working relationships throughout the industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;We don&apos;t just buy seafood from the least expensive person. We brag about our vendors. The relationships we&apos;ve made, make us who we are,&quot; said Inland Seafood&apos;s President Chris Rosenberger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inland&apos;s commitment to quality, safety and sustainability is reinforced by the company&apos;s global SQF level 3 certification that requires stringent traceability documentation down to the fishing boat where their product is caught. For Inland, however, such measures were already being done in-house by their own quality assurance team, because of the company&apos;s appreciation for the environment and because quality, safety and sustainability just makes better sense. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;It&apos;s about generations to come having an abundance of quality seafood to eat,&quot; said Rosenberger. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With 35 years of sustainable business practices, Inland has been keen to share its knowledge and prove that sustainability has always been possible and continues to remain vital to the health of the industry. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Sustainability is not a definitive way to do business, it&apos;s a process of doing your business and being conscious about it,&quot; said Rosenberger. &quot;We help vendors get to the next level and have gone all over the world to help them grow &amp;#8230;We&apos;re about education; we&apos;re educating our customers, vendors and consumers.&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To spread that knowledge and education, Inland has adopted the use of social media technologies to keep the seafood sustainability discussion fresh and interactive. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Social media is one of the most effective ways for companies to connect with each other and individuals in the market,&quot; said Rodney Fund, media relations liaison for Inland. &quot;Through Facebook and Twitter, our goal is to inform and educate the people who care about the business we do.&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company has also invested in a new company app available on for iPhone, iPad, Android and Blackberry mobile devices. With a complete listing and description of the company&apos;s product line, to a comprehensive seafood glossary, buying guide, and even the weekly market report, the app is designed to aid in a number of everyday tasks of food service industry professionals.

&lt;td height=&quot;78&quot; valign=&quot;top&quot;&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For example, this week&apos;s market report features the reopening of calico scallops for the first time in many years. The 80-110 count scallop, that are landed live and trucked to Inland&apos;s shucking facility in North Carolina, has been reopened by NMFS after several years of closures. Inland is featuring calico scallops at $6.99 for the month of March. &quot;We&apos;re putting it out there because we want everyone to see that education and information is important, we know that it helps our customers grow,&quot; said Rosenberger. &quot;We&apos;re going to make sustainability a household name.&quot; &lt;/p&gt;

Varieties include Crab and Artichoke garnished with Sundried Tomatoes, Smoked Salmon with Ginger, Sesame, and Wasabi, Maine Lobster with Roasted Corn and Basil, and Shrimp Provencal garnished with Roasted Tomatoes Zucchini, and Basil.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 8pt&quot;&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &apos;Arial&apos;,&apos;sans-serif&apos;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 8pt&quot;&gt;These convenient little dishes are great for those with a gourmet palate on a fast-food schedule. &lt;em&gt;&amp;#8220;They are the perfect snack or elegant appetizer&amp;#8221;,&lt;/em&gt; said Inland Market&amp;#8217;s Project Manager Evan Pihera.

      <title>State (NC) to Close Spotted Seatrout Harvest Due to Cold Stun Events 
      </title>
      <link>http://www.inlandseafood.com/State-NC-to-Close-Spotted-Seatrout-Harvest-Due-to-Cold-Stun-Events</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;MOREHEAD CITY &lt;/strong&gt;&amp;#8211; North Carolina will close all coastal waters to commercial and recreational spotted seatrout harvest for an indefinite period beginning at noon Friday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries Director Louis Daniel issued a proclamation today implementing the closure, after consulting with N.C. Marine Fisheries Commission Chairman Rob Bizzell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The action is being taken in response to recent cold stun events in Rose Bay, Juniper Bay, Pungo River, Campbell Creek, Turnigan Bay, Spooners Creek and other waters. The intent of the closure is to prevent the harvest of vulnerable cold stunned fish, which may recover with warming temperatures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#8220;On the heels of two cold stun events, one in 2010 and now in 2011, and pretty large commercial and recreational catch rates in 2009, I believe this is the best thing for the fishery,&amp;#8221; Daniel said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In approving the Spotted Seatrout Fishery Management Plan in November, the Marine Fisheries Commission authorized Daniel to temporarily close harvest in the event of a cold stun event. The commission will review the closure and consider extending it at is Feb. 11 meeting in Pine Knoll Shores.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more information, contact division biologist Beth Burns at (252) 473-5734, extension 221, or &lt;a href=&quot;&amp;#109;&amp;#97;&amp;#105;&amp;#108;&amp;#116;&amp;#111;&amp;#58;&amp;#66;&amp;#101;&amp;#116;&amp;#104;&amp;#46;&amp;#66;&amp;#117;&amp;#114;&amp;#110;&amp;#115;&amp;#64;&amp;#110;&amp;#99;&amp;#100;&amp;#101;&amp;#110;&amp;#114;&amp;#46;&amp;#103;&amp;#111;&amp;#118;&quot;&gt;Beth.Burns@ncdenr.gov&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Inland Market Answers Consumers&apos; Call for Healthy and Sustainable Seafood Options 
      </title>
      <link>http://www.inlandseafood.com/Inland-Market-Answers-Consumers-Call-for-Healthy-and-Sustainable-Seafood-Options</link>
      <description>&lt;style type=&quot;text/css&quot;&gt;@import url(/css/styles_wysiwyg.css);&lt;/style&gt;
 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 12pt&quot;&gt;Inland Market Premium Foods launches new Mahi product marinated in Sea Salt &amp;amp; Roasted Garlic for retail consumers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.5pt&quot;&gt;(Atlanta, GA) - January 10, 2011 &amp;#8211; Inland Market Premium Foods has launched a brand new seafood item that supports a sustainable species while making eating healthy a little easier. We know fish is good for us and want to reap the nutritional benefits they offer, but we don&amp;#8217;t always know how to prepare them for dinner. Research is always being released regarding the heart-healthy benefits of eating fish. However, purchasing and preparing fresh seafood several times a week is not always a viable option for today&amp;#8217;s busy, yet health-conscious consumer. &amp;#8220;&lt;em&gt;That&amp;#8217;s where we come in.&amp;#8221;, &lt;/em&gt;says Inland Market Project Manager, Evan Pihera, &amp;#8220;&lt;em&gt;We take many things into consideration when developing a new product. Our preparation instructions take all the guesswork out of it and the end result is a restaurant style meal. Using ingredients like sea salt just makes sense when you know customers are concerned with sodium intake.&amp;#8221;&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.5pt&quot;&gt;One of the greatest advantages that Inland Market has is that they are under the same roof as one of the largest fresh seafood distributors in the country, Inland Seafood. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Inland Seafood, Inland Market has access to the freshest seafood and stays in tune with sustainability concerns in the industry.  The wild-caught Mahi is a terrific and responsible choice. They are fast growing and extremely prolific spawners which make them resilient to fishing pressure. Nutritionally, Mahi is low in saturated fat, is a good source of vitamin B12, phosphorus, and potassium and is a very good source of protein, niacin, vitamin B6, and selenium. The new product, Sea Salt and Roasted Garlic Mahi, is a great addition to the impressive portfolio of chef inspired entrees, seafood cakes, dips and spreads that Inland Market offers. &amp;#8220;&lt;em&gt;We produce our recipes at the height of the season and source fresh product from around the globe to ensure you get the freshest flavors possible. While our products are constantly evolving to meet changing consumer needs, Inland Market is dedicated to making sure every item is as excellent as the first.&amp;#8221;, &lt;/em&gt;says Jerry Staines,&lt;em&gt; Vice President of Inland Market,  &amp;#8220;We are constantly creating meals which incorporate the nutritional benefits consumers want, into the taste and quality that they demand. With seafood sustainability being a rising concern and a great importance, we also strongly consider what species we use in our recipes&amp;#8221;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.5pt&quot;&gt;Inland Market Premium Foods is a division of Inland Seafood, one of the country&amp;#8217;s largest processors and distributors of fresh fish and seafood. Employing a team of renowned chefs and using only the freshest ingredients to create the finest flavors, Inland Market develops and produces some of the most innovative restaurant-quality seafood products found in grocery aisles today.

For centuries the coast of Maine has been home to this sweet crustacean with unequaled culinary appeal.
