About the data
In Spain the market share of certified sustainable fish is around 2%. The consumer's work in their individual purchase decisions is essential, but even more so is that of the distributors with their purchasing policies ...
According to the latest survey carried out by MSC together with the Global Scan consultancy, 54% have changed their habits for a more responsible one with regard to the purchase of fish (reduction, change of species, certification, etc.)
Our recommendation is to prefer certified fish, Atlantic species, diversify, seasonal, local (although it does not guarantee that it is sustainable)
