Sustaining the Source
The Alaska fishery accounts for 95% of all commercially caught salmon in the U.S. and supplies nearly 80% of the world's supply of King, Sockeye, and Coho Salmon species*. Sustaining this vital and important food resource is the responsibility of fisheries, seafood companies, scientists, conservation groups and consumers. As a seafood company whose success depends on the sustained abundance of commercial fishery resources, E&E Foods actively participates in the protection of our marine environment.
E&E Foods and its group of subsidiary processing plants hold Chain of Custody Certifications from the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). These certifications ensure that our Salmon, Halibut and Black Cod (Sablefish) product comes from and can be traced back to a sustainable fishery and allows our customers to place the MSC label on our product for consumer awareness.
The MSC is the world's leading certification and ecolabelling program for sustainable seafood and meets the highest program benchmarks, including the UN Food and Agriculture Organization guidelines and the ISEAL Code of Good Practice. For more information about the Marine Stewardship Council, go to http://www.msc.org/
