Setting the Standard for Seafood

More than half the seafood eaten around the world is farmed. Seafood farming is a large, growing industry with a significant global impact and must be handled with great responsibility and care. It is one of our biggest opportunities to feed a growing population responsibly.

The most robust and relevant standards, with care for people and the planet

We run the world’s leading certification programme for responsibly farmed seafood and along with our partners, we drive additional impact beyond just certification.
