Sustainability is key!

Sustainability is no doubt the keyword of the future, as it is the only way to ensure a future for current and next generations.

Sustainable Seafood is part of this philosophy.

Since 1998, the sturgeon has been listed by the Washington Convention as species in danger of extinction. Our partners have been fighting every day for over 30 years to safeguard this endangered fish species. The entire manufacturing facility is certified “BRC” and “IFS high level”, quite unique in the world of sturgeon breeders and caviar producers. Moreover, we have been awarded the Certificate Friend of the Sea for our sustainable approach in breeding.
