Celebrity Chefs Call for Access to More Sustainable Seafood

Did you know that in South Africa 31% of assessed marine fishery resources are depleted or heavily depleted? This is similar to global statistics yet overfishing continues amid concerns that climate change is also impacting fish stock productivity and distributional shifts. Now top South African celebrity chefs have joined a clarion call for retailers and suppliers to prioritise more responsible fishing and aquaculture practices in their supply chains according to a new report from WWF’s Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative.
