A global sourcing policy based on responsible ocean stewardship
Iceland Seafood International (ISI) bases its global sourcing policy on the following principles:
- ISI´s objective is to source only from fisheries that are administrated in conformance with FAO Code of Conducts for responsible fisheries and have proper fishery management systems.
- ISI supports independent and credible standards that are set to audit and approve fisheries that are well managed and will werever possible promote these fisheries to its customers.
- ISI is committed not to source fish from stocks that are endangered.
- ISI will help and support customers to make the right choice to source sustainable seafood.
- ISI is committed to supply sustainable seafood to the consumer’s plate.
Iceland Seafood International works according to the FAO code of conducts for responsible fisheries (FAO 2005).Most responsible fishing nations are working in conformance with the FAO code of conducts and have issued quota or have other means of regulating fishing within their own fishing zones.
The Quality Mark, i.e. the Iceland Responsible Fisheries logo confirms the Icelandic origin of fish products harvested from Icelandic waters. The logo is an official verification of responsible fisheries management.
The Icelandic fisheries management system promotes sustainable utilization of marine life as a basis for seasonal fishing quotas. The system has a proven record through extensive research, supported by active governmental monitoring and regulatory enforcement.
