Wild Planet is committed to providing the finest tasting sustainably caught seafood while supporting the conservation of wild marine ecosystems.
Pole and troll tuna fishing is rated as the best catch method for tuna by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch® program, Blue Ocean Institute, World Wildlife Fund (WWF), Greenpeace and other industry experts.
Wild Planet sources tuna ONLY from pole and troll catch fisheries.
We do not source ANY fish from long-line or purse seine fisheries.
Please note how Wild Planet's providing 100%caught products sustainably to other major sustainable brands' claims that they will be sustainable compliant by 2014 or 2015. Some companies' efforts to reach compliance for sustainability include using FAD-free purse seining, which is not considered a best catch method by a consensus of eco-organizations. compares
We already are 100% compliant and have been since 2004.
Wild Planet workers take delivery of the fish right off the boats, and many of the boat owners are shareholders in our company. This gives us the advantage of being one of the very few packaged seafood companies that oversees selecting only the highest quality fish from the catch, directing quality control in the packing of the product and offering the product to our customers. With this hook-to-shelf oversight, we are able to assure that our products are the best tasting possible and in compliance with our mission.
