Seafood Sustainability

Our significant presence in the seafood market means that seafood sustainability is an important consideration for our business. We do not sell wild-caught seafood species identified as endangered in the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species and do not permit the purchase of seafood acquired through illegal, unreported or unregulated catches.  We are working towards the goal of 100% traceability on all seafood products.

We look to partner with suppliers who share our view and catch or farm seafood in a sustainable and responsible manner. We offer a wide variety of products that have been certified by third-party organizations working on advancing sustainable and responsible seafood practices, including MSC certified wild-caught seafood products and BAP or ASC certified farmed seafood products.  We also purchase seafood originating from Fishery Improvement Projects (FIPs).  FIPs are multi-stakeholder initiatives that aim to help fisheries work towards sustainable and responsible seafood practices. 

Within our Diamond Harvest brand, we are committed to sourcing third party certified seafood products or products purchased via a FIP, wherever commercially available. We measure the percentage of certification for these products to monitor our performance against these commitments.  In our last fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, 100% of our Diamond Harvest branded products (by dollar value) had either an MSC, ASC or BAP certification.
