Description

MSC defines what is a sustainable fishery via its Standard. Fisheries then apply to be independently assessed against the MSC Standard. If the independent assessment team concludes the fishery passes the assessment product from that fishery can be labled with MSCs logo. This allows consumers to make an informned decision at their local retailer to buy fish products from a sustainable source.
