Consumers that buy fish care about the environment. Our oceans are under more pressure than ever from human and environmental impact. Sustainable fishing today helps protect our oceans for the future. Companies in the fishing industry need to demonstrate for their customers that they are supporting the work for a healthy ocean. In addition to saving the nature, sustainable fishing is essential for human livelihoods and economies worldwide.
A fisheries certification show consumers and stakeholders that the fisheries are sustainable. An MSC certification shows proof of sustainable operations and transparency when it comes to the target stock. It takes into account the whole marine ecosystem, and the efficiency of the management system.
A supply chain certification according to the MSC Chain of Custody standard ensures consumers that the seafood products they buy come from sustainable fisheries and that the labelling is in line with MSC rules. In order to sell MSC certified fish it is necessary to certify the whole supply chain.
