Seafood

​The demand for seafood is growing. While the production of captured fish has stabilized, aquaculture is the world’s fastest growing food production category. Producers and other players in the value chain need confirmation of safe and responsible practices in resource management and seafood production.

Purpose

​Consumers and stakeholders expect seafood to be safe and to be responsibly sourced, whether live catch or farmed. Certification according to accredited standards provides verification of responsible practices.

Benefits

​Both fisheries and aquaculture face specific risks related to food safety and sustainable practices. Managing their risks will help demonstrate to consumer, business partners and society at large that you work to ensure a responsible sourcing/production. It can help improve market access as you meet customer demands for supplier verification and overall it improves processes within your own organisation.
MSC Chain of Custody Standard
​Certification to the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) Chain of Custody Standard enables you to demonstrate to costumers that your seafood originates from an MSC certified sustainable fishery.
 MSC Principles and Criteria for Sustainable Fishing ​The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) Principles and Criteria for Sustainable Fishing is a standard ensuring that a fishery is well managed and responsibly harvested to sustain the target fishery and the surrounding marine environment. Certification to this standard demonstrates commitment to sustainable practices and results in recognition in the market.
