Marine Biologist and Entrepreneur, Paul O`Connor is the latest to join the community and this week he also joined Conall on the Sunday Business Show to discuss his company, This is Seaweed.
The company, which was established by Paul O`Connor in 2015, is building a global organic food brand and aims to encourage consumers to engage with seaweeds and to understand the benefits they possess with regards to nutrition and taste.
Each seaweed in the company’s product range has its own suite of beneficial vitamins and minerals that make them ‘superfoods’.
