RESPONSIBLE AQUACULTURE The Mediterranean seafood tradition teaches us the importance of staying in balance with nature. Building upon these strong traditions of respect and pride, Avramar’s ethos is to work in harmony with nature, consistently delivering responsibly and sustainably produced fresh farmed fish. IN AN INCREASINGLY POPULATED WORLD, AND ONE IN WHICH WILD FISHERIES ARE AT THEIR MAXIMAL LIMITS, AQUACULTURE HAS EMERGED AS THE BEST APPROACH TO ENSURE A CONSISTENT AND ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE SUPPLY OF QUALITY SEAFOOD. IT IS ALSO THE MOST CLIMATE FRIENDLY OF ALL FARMED ANIMAL PRODUCTION. At Avramar, we are proud to be part of the solution. As a leader in Mediterranean aquaculture, we play a pivotal role in facing global challenges by adhering to a business strategy that is committed to using sustainable and responsible aquaculture practices. This commitment is to our customers, our community, and our planet. SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS – A KEY PRIORITY IN OUR STRATEGIC PLAN CLICK TO DISCOVER ETHICAL FEED SOURCING ENHANCED FISH WELFARE RESPONSIBLE FARMING REDUCED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT BETTER ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT IMPROVED EMPLOYEE WELLBEING We have targeted six principal aspects of our operations that offer opportunities to increase sustainability and improve performance. Achieving tangible improvements in each of these areas will result in positive outcomes for our communities, our fish, and our planet. SOURCING OF RAW MATERIALS FOR OUR FEED Responsible sourcing of fishmeal and fish oil is of paramount importance to our industry. Decreasing our reliance on wild fish inputs is a key part of our long-term strategy, which is assisted by our ongoing R&D initiatives. The fishmeal and fish oil that we do use are strictly sourced from certified stocks only, and never involve endangered species or IUU fisheries. OUR PROCESS Our sustainability and responsibility strategy is aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), on which we base our medium and long-term objectives Our commitment to sustainability has driven us towards achieving farm certification through globally recognized, international sustainability standards, such as GlobalG.A.P. and Friend of the Sea and, more recently, the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC). ASC is undoubtedly the most rigorous and demanding of all certifiers and we are proud to have participated as a pilot company for them in the development of their new standard for Sea Bream, Sea Bass and Corvina. With an ethos of continuous improvement, Avramar will consistently endeavor to align our future journey with the objectives of the SDGs, aiming to leave our planet a better place for future generations to come.
