ISF Certificate Sharers

Icelandic Sustainable Fisheries exists through a broad group of partners and is owned by companies in the fishing industry, producers and sales organisations. Once a certificate sharer has owned a product, a product can be labelled as MSC certified.

The following companies can activate the any and all ISF fishery certificates once they have owned a product coming from an MSC certified fishery from any Icelandic vessel.
