Responsible Fish Sourcing Policy

The Co-operative’s Responsible Fish Sourcing Policy, launched in 2008, is a method of assessing the sourcing of fish, and has been developed by The Co-operative along with its partner suppliers and leading NGO’s, taking into account both environmental and ecological issues. It applies to all Co-operative own-brand fish, including canned and frozen and all products containing fish such as sandwiches.

There are three main areas of focus:

Wild Caught Fish Policy

Farmed Fish Policy

Tuna Sourcing Policy
