The ready-made frozen meal contains pollock from Alaska and Russia, blue shell mussels from Denmark, shrimps from Suriname and is available in Netto stores across Germany under the Las Cuarenta label.<\/p>\n
The paella\u2019s seafood mix comes from a diverse range of fisheries, from a developing world fishery in South America, to some of the world\u2019s largest fisheries in North America and Europe.<\/p>\n
Nicolas Guichoux, MSC\u2019s global commercial director, said: \u201cThe 20,000th MSC labelled product, Las Cuarenta Paella, illustrates the growing trend in new seafood products. Over the last decade, we\u2019ve seen new and novel ways MSC certified seafood is being used.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLas Cuarenta paella is a fine example of how retailers and manufacturers are exploring new trends to attract more sustainable seafood lovers,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
MSC labelled products cover more than 100 different species from over 280 certified fisheries providing sustainable, traceable fish for consumers in 100 countries.<\/p>\n
\u201cNine years ago only 1,000 labelled products were on the market globally. So we celebrate this new important milestone, and honour all fisheries and retail partners whose commitment to sustainability has contributed to the growth of the MSC program around the world and played a part in securing a healthy future for our oceans,\u201d said Mr Guichoux.<\/p>\n
The blue MSC label assures consumers that the fish they are buying comes from a sustainable and well-managed fishery that has been independently certified, ensuring that the fish populations and the ecosystems upon which they depend remain healthy and productive.<\/p>\n
Any organisation selling or handling MSC certified seafood must ensure that it is correctly labelled and kept separate from other non-certified seafood at all times. This ensures that MSC labelled seafood can be traced back to a sustainable source.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
