US-based Artisan Bistro, creator of modern organic frozen entrées, burritos, bowls and breakfasts, has earned Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) ecolabel for its new line of Seafood Bowls, making it the first entrée frozen food line in North America to achieve the certification.
Available in four varieties, each chef-inspired seafood entrée is crafted with sustainably-sourced seafood, including wild-caught Alaskan salmon and cod, and wild pink shrimp sourced from fisheries that have been certified against the global MSC standard. The savory new Seafood Bowls join Artisan Bistro’s expanding range of nutritionally-rich frozen meals, marking the company’s third product line launch within three months.
“Our goal with the launch of these bowls is to create the best tasting, best for you frozen meals on the market, while preserving the ocean’s bounty for our children and grandchildren. Our new Seafood Bowls allow everyone to enjoy the convenience of a frozen meal and still feel great about the food they’re eating,” said Leo Griffin, CEO, Artisan Bistro Foods, Inc.
Each new Seafood Bowl is made with seafood from a sustainable fishery that has been independently certified to the MSC standard.
“Artisan Bistro’s initiative to provide consumers with frozen entrées that are traceable to an MSC certified fishery will help to ensure sustainable seafood for this and future generations,” added Geoff Bolan, US programme director, MSC.
