Summary

Protecting the planet is a priority for Alcampo, which aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2043 in the areas of direct emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and has defined its emissions reduction targets, aligned with a maximum temperature increase of 1.5°C, in line with the objectives of the Paris Agreement. Similarly, circular economy and biodiversity preservation are the priorities defined in the environmental domain. Taking a further step in our commitment to biodiversity, we publish this ODP (Ocean Disclosure Project) profile, which is limited to Alcampo products supplied during 2023 and covered by our purchasing policy, including our own brands and the line of fresh products (74 species of wild and farmed fish analyzed, 36% of fresh fish purchased, plus 84% of fishery and aquaculture products from own brands excluding bivalves, surimi and some processed products). This profile contains sustainability ratings from FishSource and Good Fish Guide.

La protección del planeta es una prioridad para Alcampo que tiene como objetivo alcanzar la neutralidad de carbono en el año 2043 en los ámbitos de emisiones directas (Scope 1 y 2) y ha definido sus objetivos de reducción de emisiones, alineados con un incremento de temperatura máximo de 1.5°C, acorde a los objetivos del Acuerdo de París. Del mismo modo la economía circular y la preservación de la biodiversidad son las prioridades definidas en el ámbito medioambiental. Dando un paso más en nuestro compromiso con la biodiversidad, publicamos este perfil ODP (Ocean Disclosure Project), que se limita a los productos Alcampo abastecidos durante 2023 y cubiertos por nuestra política de compras, incluyendo nuestras marcas propias y la línea de productos frescos (74 especies de pescado salvaje y de acuicultura analizadas, 36% de los kilos comprados de pescado fresco, más el 84% de las compras de productos de la pesca y la acuicultura de marcas propias excluyendo bivalvos, surimi y algunos productos procesados).

Environmental Notes Fishmeal and fish oil from marine feed sources are used. The sustainability of feed inputs is unknown. Disease transfer between farmed and wild prawns is a concern but infrequent water exchange on whiteleg shrimp farms moderates the risk. Information on escapes is limited. Shrimp farmed in Ecuador are raised from hatchery-raised native broodstock, therefore lowering the risk to wild shrimp populations if interbreeding does occur, however, interbreeding may still result in reduced genetic fitness. Pollution from nutrients and organic matter, as well as chemical inputs, may affect local water quality. Impacts on water quality vary depending on farm practices including the frequency of waste discharge from ponds. General Notes The government has adopted a farm-based approach to aquaculture regulations and licensing.

Environmental Notes Fishmeal and fish oil from marine feed sources are used but semi-intensive production systems use limited amounts of feed meaning that the feed footprint is low. Disease transfer between farmed and wild prawns is a concern but impacts do not appear to be significant. Farms are prone to flooding, which increases the risk of escape events occurring, but escape prevention measures are used. Shrimp farmed in Ecuador are raised from hatchery-raised native broodstock, therefore lowering the risk to wild shrimp populations of competition or genetic interactions. The low stocking densities of whiteleg shrimp allow for minimal inputs of chemicals and antibiotics. General Notes The environmental impacts described are addressed to some degree by certification.
