Millions to benefit as Three Oceans commits to a sustainable future
Millions of diners are to benefit as one of the UK’s key fish suppliers, Three Oceans, has committed to the Sustainable Fish Cities pledge. Three Oceans supply several top high street restaurants, ensuring their customers are served only demonstrably sustainable fish.
The Sustainable Fish Cities pledge commits Three Oceans to a suite of measures which will ensure that all their products are from verifiably sustainable sources; protecting precious marine environments and supporting sustainable fishermen and farmers. This action is just the latest of Three Oceans in a rich 25 year history of sustainable fishing, maintaining the high standards of MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) and working closely with their fishery partners globally.
The pledge provides a major boost to the Sustainable Fish Cities campaign, which aims to see only verifiably sustainable fish on menus in the UK, and is now active in 16 towns and cities across the UK’s Sustainable Food Cities network.
Three Oceans produce 41 million fish fillets per year. Laid end to end, these would stretch from Hull to Brisbane.
