In the statement signed by bofrost executives Norbert Helgers, Jörg Jacob and Ulrich Schönhoff last month, the company stated that supports and promotes the ASC standards and confirms their willingness to preferably source farmed seafood from sources that work or will work in compliance with these standards.
In the statement, the company also said that it will call upon their current suppliers to get ASC-certified. At the same time, bofrost confirmed that they will publicly state their support for the ASC standards and will publish their cooperation with the ASC in their own printed media.
"bofrost has made it their objective to educate their 2.7 million loyal customers and convince them of the importance and advantages of the ASC standards for responsible aquaculture”, said the company.

About the Aquaculture Stewardship Council
The Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) is an independent not for profit organisation. The ASC was founded in 2009 by WWF (World Wildlife Fund) and IDH (Dutch Sustainable Trade Initiative) to manage the global standards for responsible aquaculture, which are under development by the Aquaculture Dialogues, a programme of roundtables initiated and coordinated by WWF.
Currently the ASC is in its business development phase. The ASC is expected to be in full operation by mid 2011.
