“Top of Mind” issues (Cont’d):

• Environmental message being lost amidst other issues and headlines (e.g.,

gun violence, political turmoil, social unrest, and economic downturn)
• Consumer misconceptions about farm-raised seafood negatively impacting

sales

• Ensuring social compliance and ethical labor practices across all parts of
the supply chain

• High cost of participating in multiple certification schemes

• Succession planning (i.e., identifying the next generation of leaders in this

space)
• Imported seafood that is cheap, poor quality, and unsustainable (i.e.,

from countries that are not socially and environmentally responsible)

• We “sleep well at night” because we work closely with our suppliers and

certifiers to ensure the sustainability of our seafood offering
