With 81% of the fish industry being male, fish monger is still a popular term in the trade. Fish mongering is to seafood what a butcher is to meat. Practitioners are trained in the selecting, purchasing, handling, filleting and displaying of seafood products – from frozen products to prepared fish.
In Australia in 2016-17, fishery and aquaculture production were valued at a significant $3.06 billion.
