Dutch supermarket translates ethical standards into its own standard for fish welfare.

Oct 22, 2021

Our research 'Murky view of fish welfare' that Questionmark conducted on behalf of the Dutch Animal Protection foundation, showed that the lack of information and the lack of clarity surrounding the existing fish labels ensure that supermarkets do not pay attention to the agony that fish usually endure in fishing and fish farming. Dutch supermarket Ekoplaza is now changing that. The supermarket says it has translated the ethical standards on how Ekoplaza wants to deal with animal welfare, biodiversity and natural resources into its own standard for fish welfare.
