Impact Stories
In everything we do at SFP, we focus on impact.
This means impact on the water, at the farm, for the ecosystem, in the community. We ask our partners to evaluate their sourcing based on impact, and we center our own approach around delivering impact in three main areas: ensuring abundant fisheries, promoting healthy ecosystems, and supporting resilient communities.
The stories on this page are just some of the ways SFP has brought people together to find impact-driven solutions to fisheries and aquaculture improvement over the last two decades.
