Abundant Fisheries
Help enforce compliance
Ensuring compliance is a group effort.
The third pillar of effective fisheries management is compliance. Once governments and regional and international organizations have set the rules, it is up to end buyers of seafood to ensure that all the businesses in their supply chain comply with those rules.
The most important thing businesses can do to ensure regulations succeed is to buy legal seafood from companies that participate in good fisheries management systems and respect local regulations.
