Europêche showcases sustainably sourced fish at European Parliament

Europêche and Alain Cadec MEP, chairman of the Fisheries Committee, have co-hosted their second triumphant Seafood Showcase reception. The event, attended by new DG MARE Director General Joao Aguiar Machado, was held in the European Parliament and exhibited fisheries products from all across Europe detailing the sustainable way in which they were caught.

“We want people to know where their fish comes from and how it was caught,“ said Europêche president Javier Garat, outlining the value of this event for the European fishing sector.

“This is why we teamed up with the Chairman of the Fisheries Committee, Alain Cadec to offer a wide range of delicious fish to sample, including wild and farmed bluefin tuna from the Mediterranean, tropical tuna, Dutch herring and plaice, Italian clams and mussels, mackerel and Scottish langoustine from the North Sea, many of which are MSC-certified.”
