Taking Sustainability Seriously
Eager in our support of the UN’s Sustainable Development goals, we are keen to be at the forefront of positive change within the seafood industry, with specific regard to goals 12, 13 and 14, as outlined here: Sustainability Goals.
We continually strive to reduce our carbon footprint by participating in recycling initiatives, actively reducing our waste and working with outside organisations to source eco-friendly packaging. We are committed to taking an innovative approach in order to tackle pressing issues like overfishing, which is why we have partnered with Norcod cod farm, who provide a cutting-edge solution to the matter of dwindling numbers of wild cod.
Frozen at Sea
Not only does frozen seafood offer better value for money, it also plays a huge part in the reduction of food waste.
Buying frozen doesn’t mean compromising on the quality either. In fact, freezing locks in nutrition and products are produced with less additives, making frozen seafood a healthier and more sustainable alternative.

We are proud to provide our colleagues both in our offices and in our affiliated processing plant with a safe workspace, in which we adhere to a code of conduct that ensures the personal dignity, equal treatment and rights of each individual.
