The MSC is an international non-profit organisation who set globally recognised standards for sustainable seafood. The blue MSC ecolabel is the world’s most recognised label for sustainable seafood.
The ecolabel is only awarded to products from well managed fisheries that meet the MSC’s science-based standards for sustainable seafood production.
A spokesperson for TUCO said: “By becoming MSC certified, your institution can help promote sustainable fishing practices around the world, whilst also boosting your institution’s sustainability credentials and meeting the sustainability demands of students. Over half (54%) of consumers aged 18-24 cite environmental reasons as the main motive for changing their diet so we know this is a key area of concern for your students.”
