Download document
Executive summary: In 2008 Greenpeace Nordic released rankings of retailers in Sweden, Norway and Denmark showing that throughout the region, there was a varied consciousness of retailer’s role in relation to depleted fish stocks, overfishing, discards, illegal fishing and destruction of habitats. These are unfortunately practises that retailers indirectly support, if they don’t have strong standards and buying principles that secure that they sell only sustainable seafood.
