Good news for MSC accredited fisheries in Cornwall from the Environment pages of the Guardian newspaper -  
"Sharp rise in sustainable seafood products on sale in UK The number of fish and seafood products on offer certified as sustainable by the Marine Stewardship Council up 41% to 988....."
The story cites examples across a range of seafood products featured on supermarket counters including our own Cornish Sardines.......




"Sainsbury's – the largest UK retailer of MSC-approved fish — has just launched its 100th MSC-certified product. Its Icelandic line-caught haddock will add to other successful products including Cornish sardines (once known as pilchards) and its Basics range of pollock fishfingers. The launch also marks the first MSC-certified fishery in Iceland."
