We are committed to protecting the future of Ireland’s fishing industry and minimising our environmental impact. 

One island, one ocean

Our sustainability journey starts in the ocean. We source and supply 100% fresh, wild, whole seafood caught in Irish coastal waters. 

We are committed to sourcing our seafood from completely Irish owned vessels fishing in Irish waters.  We understand our responsibility and the part we play in securing the future of our fishing industry and the environment. Building a secure future for local fishing families and community is at the heart of our business.

Continuously working with our vessels with the support of Board lascaigh Mhara to identify and employ improved fishing methods, focusing more than ever on conservation and sustainability measures to secure the future of the fishing industry.

As a company, we provide access to continuous learning and self-development training programmes, promoting lifelong learning.

COMMITMENT TO HAVING

MINIMAL FOOD WASTE

Our lean business practices result in extremely minimal food waste. We have a commitment to low impact on the environment, which forms part of our overall waste reduction strategy.  We work with local service providers to ensure any waste is recycled and forms part of an alternate production cycle, for example, into products for non-human consumption.

KEEPING OUR INDUSTRY SAFE

Our fishermen use best practice health and safety processes on all their commercial fishing vessels, with their well trained crews.

We support our fishermen and families to understand and tackle the issue of staying safe at sea.
