Morrisons

Morrisons is a major British supermarket retailer, with more than 100,000 colleagues in 491 stores serving over 11 million customers every week. Morrisons operates its own sites making meat, fruit and veg, fish, bakery and fresh food products - 17 in all - and is unique in preparing and making more than half of the fresh food sold in its stores, supported by over 9,000 trained butchers, bakers, fishmongers, cheesemongers and other skilled in-store specialists. Morrisons currently offers its customers a range of nearly 70 seafood species, with its range of wild caught seafood covering more than 50 species.

Summary

Morrisons aims to source its seafood from fisheries and farms that use methods which are the least detrimental to the marine environment, provide equitable working conditions and stable incomes to those employed within them. All species must meet a set of sustainability criteria before they can be stocked in store. Morrisons partners with the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership (SFP) to inform its seafood source risks assessments, and works with suppliers to address issues where they are identified. In 2015, Morrisons became one of the first companies to disclose its seafood sourcing list through the Ocean Disclosure Project. This disclosure represents wild caught fish and seafood used in Morrisons products and includes minor ingredients. While progress is being made on the capture of information for source fisheries used in aquaculture feed, these are not included.

Morrisons supports the Seafish Responsible Fishing Scheme, a standard for crew welfare and responsible catching practices on board fishing vessels and has committed to source its UK caught and landed wild capture seafood from Responsible Fishing Scheme-certified vessels. Morrisons is a member of the Sustainable Seafood Coalition (SSC), a partnership of UK businesses working together to support sustainable seafood, and has adopted the SSC voluntary codes of conduct for the environmental labelling and sourcing of seafood products.

Morrisons has a tuna-specific policy stating that it will only source tuna from pole and line fisheries or fisheries that do not use fish aggregating devices (FADs). In support of this commitment to sustainable tuna, the retailer also aims to source its tuna from vessels that are independently assessed and listed on the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (ISSF)’s Proactive Vessel Register, which represents vessels that are engaged in tuna sustainability efforts.

Species and Location Shallow-water cape hake Merluccius capensis South Africa Fishery countries: South Africa	Production Methods Bottom trawl	Certification or Improvement Project Certified	Stock Status and Management Well managed
Environmental Notes Previous concerns over interactions with seabirds have been mitigated using bird scaring lines and a reduction in fishing effort. However, information on seabird bycatch mortality is still limited. There is bycatch for this fishery but there is a strategy in place for managing retained species. The discard rate for the fishery is very low and the fishery is unlikely to hinder the recovery of discarded species. Bottom trawls will directly impact on the sea bed, however, this fishery is considered highly unlikely to have an irreversible impact on habitat structure and function. General Notes Caveat The environmental notes for this fishery are partly based on information from sources other than the FishSource profile.
