The Global Fishiers Training Programme

For the purpose of contributing to the development of the marine industry in New Zealand, Nissui provides in-house training for young Maori, a minority group of the nation.

We have accepted 1 or 2 trainee(s) every year since 2002. During the one-year training, trainees visit or stay in fish farms and research facilities nationwide to participate in practical work and lectures ranging from catching, farming, processing, selling and distributing. The training program also focuses on understanding Japanese culture and consumer's needs as well as Japanese language study.

Trainees who have completed the training return to New Zealand, and actively engage in the home marine industry and other relevant businesses.
