The company’s oysters are farmed in the waters of Smoky Bay, a coastal hamlet on the South Australian Eyre Peninsula.
FoS says that - from an environmental perspective - Angel Oysters conducts a responsible farming operation which complies with the standard. An adjustable longline system is used to monitor the water flow throughout the farms and the impact on the sea bed is negligible, allowing the sea grasses to regrow and rejuvenate.
The oysters are fully traced though an efficient traceability system - from spat, throughout their life’s history on the company’s farms, to their destination and the product line.
The company holds the eco-label NASAA (National Association for Sustainable Agriculture, Australia) Certified Organic and it implements ongoing improvements to infrastructure related to recycled posts and baskets.
“Friend of the Sea certification is an important international confirmation of the natural origin of our oysters,” said Isaac Halman from Angel Oysters. "Oysters have minimal impact on the environment and are one of the most sustainable seafood choices.”
