Our View on Sustainability

Sustainability can mean different things depending on who you ask — a marine scientist, an enthusiastic celebrity chef, an EU parliamentarian, a fishmonger, or a fisherman working the waters off Ireland’s west coast.

At Gannet, our interpretation goes beyond a simple Eat / Don’t Eat list. The reality is that the catch of a fishing boat is rarely that straightforward.

As fishmongers, we have a vested interest in selling the fish our customers want — but we also take our responsibility seriously. We remain objective, transparent, and honest about our sourcing. #nogreenwashing

Our future as a business is tied directly to the long-term health of our marine resources. Sustainable fishing doesn’t just protect the ocean — it also brings us the highest quality fish to offer you.

We are committed to paying a fair price to our fishermen and supporting them whenever possible.

Are you?

While out of sight, the sustainability of what goes on in far flown Third world fisheries must not be overlooked. Some of the Environmental and Human Cost of our taste for some exotic seafood would leave a bitter flavour if looked at closely… (A reason we stopped sourcing farmed imports from South East Asia…)

The recommendations we are making on the sustainability of our products are solely based on our opinion and experiences. As a consumer you are also intimately responsible for deciding which products are sold and which ones are not.
