Seafood Supply Chain Management: Methods to Prevent Illegally-Caught Product Entry into the Marketplace

07/01/2008

Author: IUCN (Cathy Roheim)

This paper analyses approaches to supply chain management in the global seafood market, and uses this analysis to make recommendations for better management of fisheries resources in such a way that IUU fishing is diminished. In particular, the paper looks at: catch and trade documentation schemes (CDS) in use by several of the regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs); and traceability systems put into place in the seafood industry, such as the chain-of-custody certification system of the MSC, and the protocol for IUU cod from the Barents Sea recently created by AIPCE (the European Fish Producers Association).
