What Does MSC mean?
MSC stands for the Marine Stewardship Council. They
are the world’s leading certification and ecolabelling
programme for environmental sustainability of wild
caught seafood. The iconic blue logo identifies all
seafood products that come from well-managed,
sustainable fisheries.
What’s behind the label?
Before any seafood product can carry the MSC
ecolabel it must first adhere to three core principles.
These include:
1.
Sustainable fish stocks.
2.
Impact in the eco-system reduced to a minimum
3.
The fishery is well managed.
Also, seafood that has an MSC label is fully traceable
back to the certified fishery where it was caught.
