There are approximately 65 vessels operated by companies based in Norway (10), Iceland(22), Faeroe Islands (3), UK (2), Russia (20), Germany (4), France (1) and Spain (3). The numbers may vary from time to time during the year as vessels switch to different species or processes.
FASFA's members benefit from the collective promotion of 'frozen at sea' fillets by all members of the chain, right through from catchers to importers and distributors.
Members are given access to all UK distribution channels and information on industry news, particularly in UK's Fish & Chip shop sector. As an international body covering all sectors of the industry, FASFA members hope to have a greater influence than they would as an individual organisation.

Famous quotes containing the word members:
“If the most significant characteristic of man is the complex of biological needs he shares with all members of his species, then the best lives for the writer to observe are those in which the role of natural necessity is clearest, namely, the lives of the very poor.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“Two myths must be shattered: that of the evil stepparent . . . and the myth of instant love, which places unrealistic demands on all members of the blended family. . . . Between the two opposing myths lies reality. The recognition of reality is, I believe, the most important step toward the building of a successful second family.”
—Claire Berman (20th century)
“I rejoice that horses and steers have to be broken before they can be made the slaves of men, and that men themselves have some wild oats still left to sow before they become submissive members of society. Undoubtedly, all men are not equally fit subjects for civilization; and because the majority, like dogs and sheep, are tame by inherited disposition, this is no reason why the others should have their natures broken that they may be reduced to the same level.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
