Fish less, but fish better. Internationally recognized for its responsible fishing practice, Unima catches, with its fleet of 20 trawlers, 2,500 tonnes of wild shrimp, in strict compliance with FAO principles for the protection of marine resources: - Control of fishing effort. - Widening of the meshes of the nets and reduction of the width of the trawls. - Implementation of TED (Turtle Excluding Device) and BRD (By-catch Reduction Device) devices, in collaboration with WWF, intended to reduce bycatch of fish and turtles. - Protection of the coastline and coral ecosystems. - Consultation with traditional fishermen for a united and sustainable exploitation of the marine resource. - Establishment of alternative income for traditional fishermen during the closure of the shrimp fishery. Unima has played a key role in establishing responsible fishing practices in Madagascar, in particular through its role as a founding member of GAPCM (Groupement des Aquaculteurs et Pêcheurs de Crevettes de Madagascar). The company has initiated with this and with the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) an eco-certification process for the fishery.
