Sam's Club Helps To Drive Change At Best Aquaculture Practices Seminar

A representative of Sam’s Club is among the speakers featured at a one-day seminar on the Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) third-party certification program at the Puerto Montt Manquehue Hotel in Puerto Montt, Chile, on July 28.

Robert Fields, senior merchandise director-fresh meat, seafood and deli for Sam’s Club, a division of Wal-Mart, will address the push for four-star BAP status, which denotes that a product originates from a BAP-certified processing plant, farm, hatchery and feed mill. It’s the highest such achievement in the BAP program. Fields will also discuss challenges and opportunities in the U.S. market for Chilean companies.

Part of the inaugural “BAP Made In” campaign, the seminar is designed to communicate the value of the BAP program.
