Who are we?

The MSC’s vision is for the world’s oceans to be teeming with life, and seafood supplies safeguarded for this and future generations. Through our internationally-recognised certification and ecolabeling program well-managed sustainable fisheries are recognised and rewarded in the market place through the leadership of our partners.  Critically, other fisheries are incentivised to improve their performance to meet the growing demand for certified sustainable and traceable seafood choice.  Over 400 fisheries around the world, representing 17% of the annual global marine catch, are now engaged in the MSC program and over 1200 documented improvements to the way our oceans are being fished have been recorded. MSC certified and labelled seafood products are now available in over 100 countries. 

We work with fisheries across the world which are certified to our sustainable fishing standard. Our ‘Blue fish’ ecolabel tells consumers that the seafood they are buying has been sustainably produced.  Our goal is to raise the public’s awareness that their choices can have a huge impact on ending the global challenge of over-fishing.

You will be confident at pitching to media outlets and have a track record in securing influential coverage.
