Eco-certification

Sustainably compatible. Mussels grow in our ocean pound naturally.

R.I. Smith proudly offers MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) eco-certified Canadian lobster.

Seafood with the MSC designation and label has been independently evaluated and found to have been responsibly harvested. All through the supply chain, this seafood can be traced back to a certified, sustainable source. The Nova Scotia region has met these rigorous standards, and our company immediately adopted them.

Responsible stewards of the sea

Eco-certification as a standard is increasingly important to the worldwide marketplace. Our clients (and ultimately consumers) need to be assured that our fisheries are conducted in a responsible manner. Eco-certification verifies that we are responsible stewards of the resource and the sea in Atlantic Canada.

Our commitment to sustainability and traceability meets well with MSC protocols, allowing us to deliver sustainable products with confidence.

We’ll provide specific details to individual clients, based on the requirements of individual markets.
