ForSea Solutions will work with the companies to increase the amount of wild salmon from the Russian regions of Kamchatka, Sakhalin and Khabarovsk that meets these companies\u2019 standards for sustainable sourcing before import to North America.<\/p>\n
ForSea Solutions was formed in 2016 to provide technical guidance to Russian salmon fishermen to help achieve Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification. \u201cWe are excited that The Fishin\u2019 Company and Gorton’s have similar goals to advance the sustainability efforts of these fisheries,\u201d said founder and president, Natasha Novikova. \u201cThese efforts include fishery improvement projects, MSC certification and much more,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
Russia is the fifth largest seafood producer in the world, harvesting approximately four million tonnes of seafood annually and accounting for 45% of wild-caught salmon globally. The Kamchatka, Sakhalin Island and Khabarovsk regions produce over 80% of Russia’s wild salmon harvest.<\/p>\n
ForSea Solutions provides technical guidance and leadership support to more than 30 Russian salmon companies, resulting in MSC certification for many, with five others currently in various stages of their sustainability efforts. In 2020, half of the salmon harvest from the Russian Far East was MSC-certified.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
