Andromeda's meagre gets ASC nod

Andromeda's Spanish division has become the first meagre producer in the country to receive Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) certification.

The group received it for its "Corvina REX" product.

The standard for seabass, seabream and meagre was launched in 2018, and farms have been able to apply for certification against it since March.

In July, Greece-based Nireus and Turkish-owned Sursan became the first Mediterranean fish farming companies certified to the new Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) standard for seabass, seabream and meagre.
