Retailers Make Progress Sourcing Sustainable Seafood

The WWW-SASSI Retailer/Supplier Participation Scheme Report 2017 was released into the public domain at the annual Sustainable Seafood Symposium hosted by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and WWF-SA’s Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative (SASSI) held in Cape Town recently. It confirms that there has been some growth in the global sustainable seafood movement. Furthermore for the first time there has been committed effort by some of the companies participating in the scheme to ensure a reduction in the use of single-use plastics such as straws.
