The Centro Servizi Avanzati per la Pesca was inaugurated in Ascea Marina on Thursday 12 November 2026, according to InfoCilento.

The centre was promoted by GAL Pesca Magna Graecia to support the operational, administrative and development needs of fishing communities in the Cilento area, according to InfoCilento.

Its planned services include help with European funding applications, support for more sustainable and energy-efficient fleets, and marketing and direct-sale strategies for locally caught fish, according to InfoCilento and Golfonetwork.

Local and regional institutional representatives attended the inauguration, including Ascea Mayor Stefano Sansone and GAL Pesca Magna Graecia President Marco Rizzo, according to InfoCilento and Golfonetwork.

The project is presented as combining environmental sustainability with economic development, with employment opportunities for young people, Golfonetwork reports.
