Environmentally & sustainably sourced FIsh
The NFFF has identified the environment and sustainability as a key business area the fish frying industry can embrace - both as a way to improve business practices and also safeguard the future of the industry. If there's no fish then there's no fish and chips!
Doing our part in being sustainable & ENvironmentally friendly
When thinking about the fish frying industry, in terms of the core product (fish) to be sustainable, the fishery must be managed in a way that allows the target fish population to be at a healthy enough level to naturally reproduce at a rate that then allows fishing to continue indefinitely without over exploiting the resources.
