Fishery performance improvements
Traceable seafood supply chains
For 20 over years fisheries, scientists, consumers and industry have been part of a collective effort to make sure our oceans are fished sustainably. These efforts are measured by real change on the water.
Since we were founded in 1997, nearly 15% of the world’s marine catch has been certified to the MSC Sustainability Standard. Certification is helping to grow and maintain the number of sustainable fish populations.

As well as fishing healthy populations, fisheries must show they are managing their impacts on habitats and other marine species.
Retailers, fishmongers and restaurants around the world are certified for traceability so fish sold with the MSC label can be traced to a sustainable fishery.
