Aldi Swims Ahead Of British Supermarkets In Sustainable Seafood

Discounter Aldi offers customers the largest proportion of sustainable seafood in the UK, ahead of big supermarkets Marks & Spencer, Morrisons, and Iceland, a new league table published today reveals.

Just under 80% of Aldi’s seafood range is certified sustainable in comparison to M&S at 19%, Morrison's at 4% Iceland at 3%. Results also show that all other supermarkets are selling more sustainable seafood than ever before, a 60% jump over the last two years.

The annual Supermarket Sustainable Seafood League rates British supermarkets on their sustainable seafood range. It’s published by the Marine Stewardship Council – the international NGO that sets the standard for sustainable fishing around the world. The MSC blue fish label indicates that seafood has been sustainably caught and can be traced back to source.
