Preserving our oceans is becoming an absolute priority. This is where MSC certification comes into its own for seafood products. Within the BARBA Group, we have made this certification a pillar of our commitment to the quality and durability of our products.
As a major player in the seafood market, we have a crucial role to play in preserving the world's oceans. Committed at every level to health safety and respect for the aquatic environment, we have obtained MSC certification. This certification guarantees that our seafood comes from sustainable, environmentally-friendly fisheries.
MSC certification is a strong commitment to the environment. It offers a reliable and sustainable solution to the problem of overfishing. To obtain it, the fisheries we partner with have been assessed by experts according to strict criteria: 28 indicators divided into 3 fundamental principles to be respected.
By sourcing from MSC-certified fisheries, we help protect the oceans and the livelihoods that depend on them. It's our way of ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come. We are convinced that this is the right way forward for our company and for the planet.
The BARBA Group is proud to be the French leader in sustainably caught tuna, swordfish and cephalopods. But our commitment to the planet doesn't stop there. Very concerned about our environment, we are developing very concrete CSR actions: installation of solar panels on our production sites, reduction of waste and increased recyclability (provision of our organic fertilizers, creation of tuna leather, research and development for ever greener packaging...), sorting of packaging, organization of waste collections with Project Rescue Ocean...
We are also involved in innovative projects such as Holosud, which aims to create a sea cucumber aquaculture industry contributing to the bioremediation of the seabed.
The MSC blue label is a guarantee of sustainability and traceability for seafood products. When you choose a product bearing this label, you can be sure that it comes from a sustainable fishery, independently assessed according to strict criteria.
MSC certification effectively combats food fraud. What's more, by choosing MSC-certified products, you're actively helping to protect our oceans. Your choice supports responsible fishing practices and helps preserve fish stocks for future generations. It's a simple and effective way to help the environment in your daily life.
