Building a Responsible Seafood Future
At Ocean Choice, sustainability is not a new concept — it has long guided how we fish, process, and work with our people and communities. As a Canadian seafood company operating in a global marketplace, we recognize this responsibility whole-heartedly.
This report marks an important milestone for our company. It is our first comprehensive effort to bring together our environmental, social, and governance (ESG) activities in one place and share them openly with our customers, employees, partners, and other stakeholders.
The report reflects where we are today, what we have achieved to date, and where we are focusing our efforts as we continue to strengthen our approach to responsible seafood.
As leaders in the fishing industry, we
are committed to sustainability in everything we do.
Advancing Sustainability in Alignment with the UN SDGs
Ocean Choice has aligned our ESG initiatives and priorities with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). These global standards help guide our approach to responsible fishing, environmental stewardship, and community well-being, ensuring our efforts contribute meaningfully to a more sustainable and resilient fishing industry.
Collaboration Drives Our Strategy
We actively engage a broad range of stakeholders to inform our sustainability strategy and reporting. This means listening to the priorities of our stakeholders and working together to deliver solutions that support shared ESG goals.
Our Approach to Sustainability
Ocean Choice’s sustainability efforts are guided by three interconnected pillars:
Sustainable Planet
We are committed to responsible fisheries, ocean stewardship, and reducing our environmental footprint across our fleet and processing operations. Protecting marine ecosystems is essential not only to our business, but to the long-term health of the seafood industry.
Thriving People and Communities
Our success depends on the people who work for Ocean Choice and the coastal communities where we operate. We strive to provide safe and respectful workplaces, invest locally, and contribute meaningfully to community wellbeing.
Responsible Business Through Ethical Leadership
Strong governance, ethical decision-making, and accountability underpin everything we do. We are focused on building systems, policies, and leadership practices that support long-term sustainability and trust.
