Sysco Serves the United Nations With Sustainable Dishes

Big things are happening for sustainable seafood! 

Last week, Seaweedish™ Meatballs were served at the United Nations Headquarters in NYC, spotlighted at the UN Conference on Trade and Development as a product advancing key Sustainable Development Goals — from ocean health to gender equity.

This moment wouldn’t have been possible without our incredible partners at North Coast Seafoods. Thanks to their innovation and our national rollout through Sysco’s Cutting Edge Solutions program, this kelp-powered product is now making global waves.
