e-Fish is a highly innovative solution for the management of wholesale fish market auctions, since it automates the sales operations and also allows the user to attend the auction online.
The system is web-oriented and open source. It gives the authorized users access to a range of information and innovative operations, such as a total seafood traceability – mandatory since January 2006 – automatic weighing, the display of the auctioned seafood with information about the fish vessel, the weight, the species and the real-time label printing. Invoicing and treasury are integrated into the auction system. All this benefits transparency, safety and a total visibility of the product.
