Sainsbury’s has been named the best sustainable seafood supermarket in the world in a survey published by the Marine Stewardship Council.
The annual supermarket league table from the international certification body – known for its blue “ecolabel” – rates British supermarkets on their sustainable seafood range. More than 300 fisheries in over 30 countries are certified to the MSC’s sustainable standard.
This year Sainsbury’s reached not only the top spot in Britain but also the number one position worldwide with the most MSC-labelled products of any national supermarket – a total of 225 MSC-certified sustainable choices. In contrast, rivals Asda and Morrisons lurk at the bottom of the league with only a handful of products.
