Edward Martin

Co-Founder, Pure Sea Nutrients

Edward Martin is the Co-Founder of Pure Sea Nutrients, with a career spanning more than fifteen years at the forefront of the global seaweed industry. In 2009 he relocated to Ireland to establish Ocean Harvest Technology's facility on the West Coast, and quickly established an international presence at OHT's facility in Ho Chi Minh. He subsequently moved into the health and wellness sector, leading market research into seaweed extracts within the FMCG space and validating commercial opportunities at the intersection of nutrition science and consumer demand. From Pure Sea's inception, Edward co-developed its human nutrition formulas, secured the raw material supply chain, established manufacturing partnerships, and oversaw the end-to-end creation of the Pure Oceans product line — bringing a science-led functional beverage to market across the UK, European and US markets.
