I love feeding my family seafood…for the great taste AND for all the healthy benefits we get from eating seafood. Like many others, I am concerned about where our seafood comes from. I am pleased to report on Safeway’s best practices on supplying healthy seafood:
To ensure that we will be able to continue to supply you--our customer--with the best quality seafood in the years ahead, we have taken concrete steps to ensure a sustainable supply.
• We have partnered with FishWise, a non-profit organization focused on sustainability, to work with our suppliers.
• We draw guidance from a number of agencies such as the Conservation Alliance for Seafood Solutions to promote seafood sustainability
• We no longer sell several “red list” species whose existence is now threatened or for which the fishing methods threaten other species.
• We identify fisheries that have the potential to improve and encourage them to establish credible improvement programs designed to meet our goals.
We were recently named Most Sustainable Seafood Grocer by Greenpeace USA for Second Consecutive Year. Read More.
We offer you many choices when selecting seafood. Look for all natural flash-frozen uncooked fillets including sockeye, halibut, cod, barramundi and mahi-mahi. In addition, be sure to see our options for gluten free breaded shrimp and fish portions.
