    Consumers want seafood traceability, according to survey commissioned by MSC

    In 21 countries 65% of consumers said they would like to know that their fish can be followed along the supply chain to a sustainable source.

    The results of the latest market study commissioned by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) reveal an interest among consumers in seafood traceability. Surveys conducted among more than 16,000 seafood consumers globally indicate that over 55% do not trust the labeling of the seafood they consume. In Spain, this value is even higher: 61% of Spanish seafood consumers doubt whether the products they consume are what their packaging reads.
