Traceability in seafood supply chains and its implications for investors

A coalition of partners consisting of the FAIRR INITIATIVE, WWF US, UNEP FI, Planet Tracker and the World Benchmarking Alliance initiated a collaborative investor engagement to encourage major seafood companies to develop and implement interoperable, digital and full-chain traceability systems. These traceability systems are used as a means to identify and address key environmental and social risks, such as illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, overfishing, habitat conversion and human rights issues, and unlock sustainable opportunities.
