Run by Hastings Borough Council on behalf of the Fisheries Local Action Group (FLAG) the fair aims to promote the undervalued but versatile herring and the fact that the Hastings fishing fleet has been recognised by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) for its sustainable fishing methods.

Locally herring, Dover sole and mackerel have all been awarded MSC certification.
