Did you know, 90% of fish in the US is imported? Can you tell the difference when you buy fish? America's well-regulated, sustainable fishers are not being rewarded for their quality or stewardship of the environment. We work with undervalued local fishers and fisheries to raise their value & make the most of their catch, with 100% traceability to the source.
Supporting responsible local fisheries is a win, win, win... win. Good for the Ocean, good for fishing communities, healthier and higher quality for you.
