Global GAP certified aquaculture producers now eligible for FoS certification

  (WORLDWIDE, 3/3/2015)

GLOBALG.A.P. Certified Aquaculture producers can now gain an additional consumer label for their products. In collaboration with the Friend of the Sea (FoS) consumer label, GLOBALG.A.P. is now offering the FoS Add-On Module for Aquaculture.

FoS is a non-profit non-governmental organization for the conservation of marine habitats by means of market incentives.

GLOBALG.A.P. certified producers who successfully comply with the four criteria defined in the FoS Add-On at farm level will be allowed to use a special consumer label, consisting of both the FoS consumer label and the GLOBALG.A.P. Number - GGN.

The FoS Add-On criteria cover the impact on water body sediment, the effect on the local community regarding access to drinking water and fishing areas, and social criteria by requiring GRASP. This add-on can be audited during the GLOBALG.A.P. Certification audit.

The FoS Add-On is now being offered to Aquaculture Version 4 certified producers who wish to benefit today from the consumer label advantage.
