Bahrain is poised to become a major player in the global seaweed market, with potential investment interest from businessmen due to the demand for seaweed in Far Eastern countries like China, Japan, Korea, and Thailand. Seaweed is used in various food items and is a rich source of essential nutrients. The market for seaweed is expanding, especially with the trend towards organically grown products. The U.S. and Canada are already successfully cultivating seaweed for human consumption, with exports to Japan, and the Irish are showing interest in reviving their traditional seaweed diet.
