SeaSam Food, a Swedish frozen food company, has earned Friend of the Sea certification for greasy back shrimps, Indian white and giant tiger prawns.
SeaSam is equipped with a batch system that guarantees traceability from producer to customer. All catch zones and fishing vessels are well documented and a database records all purchases and sales.
SeaSam is sourced in Indonesia and the prawns are caught with selective trammel nets and artisanal fisheries.
“We are proud to have obtained the Friend of the Sea certification,” said Petter Rönnqvist, SeaSam CEO. “This is a recognition which highlights our efforts towards the preservation of the marine habitat.”
