As leaders in the seafood industry, we find ourselves at the forefront of a new wave of sustainability practice. As trends in seafood production shift, we find it our responsibility to provide market environmentally friendly wild fisheries and aquaculture. We believe an investment in sustainability is an investment in the future of America and the world.
Having a good understanding of the status of the fisheries that make up the seafood Fortune Fish & Gourmet is buying and selling is critical to developing and executing any sustainable seafood policy. While we do consider the MSC, Best Aquaculture Practice (Global Aquaculture Alliance), and Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) standards favorably in our sourcing decisions, Fortune Fish does not require all of our products to be certified “sustainable.” We understand that certification can be expensive and not accessible to everyone. We do seek to ensure that the products we sell meet certain benchmarks for food safety, quality and sustainability as outlined above.
