Why MSC?

Buyer and consumer interest in sustainable seafood has created growing international demand for MSC-certified products. The MSC logo is evidence a fishery meets strict environmental standards and the product originates from a sustainable and well-managed fishery.

Who is MSC?

The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) is an independent, global, non-profit organization. It works to:

• enhance responsible management of seafood resources
• ensure the sustainability of global fish stocks and the health of the marine ecosystem.

The MSC harnesses consumer power by identifying sustainable seafood products with their easily recognized eco-label.
