THE PERFECT
PROTEIN
Wild British seafood is a healthy and sustainable source of protein.
As an island nation, fishing has an important cultural significance and helps support coastal communities around the country.
We are surrounded by some of the most fertile fishing grounds in the world and the fish that we source from them are sought after globally.
However, in Britian, around two thirds of the fish we consume is imported and almost 80% of the fish that we catch is exported.
At Sound Seafood we aim to positively influence consumer attitudes and perceptions about the benefits of choosing wild British fish.
Low Carbon
In recent years, many of us have become increasingly aware of the carbon footprint of the food we consume. To reduce our environmental impact, some have opted to replace high-carbon foods, like red meat, with low-emission alternatives such as vegetables and pulses.
What many of our customers find surprising is that fish can actually be one of the lowest-carbon protein sources available.
Among seafood, domestically sourced wild British fish such as mackerel, sardines, and herring have such a low carbon footprint that they often have less environmental impact than vegetables!
