Participating Companies
We believe it’s important to work with all stakeholders — and tuna processors, traders, and/or marketers are integral to improving the sustainability of the world’s tuna resources.
Companies that participate in ISSF are members of the International Seafood Sustainability Association (ISSA). Membership in ISSA is voluntary and is contingent upon compliance with ISSF conservation measures and standards of practice.
We publish audit reports for each participating company. We also produce an annual compliance report, which tracks both participating companies’ and ProActive Vessel Register vessels’ aggregate performance on relevant measures.
All companies work with the Foundation to advocate for improved fishery management, fund scientific advancements through research and expert analysis, and take direct action to encourage the adoption of responsible fishing practices — all while committing to a suite of conservation measures aimed at improving the long-term health of global tuna fisheries.
Membership Application
Seafood companies worldwide — tuna processors, traders and marketers — are invited to participate in ISSF’s efforts to foster sustainable tuna fishing and sourcing practices.
The International Seafood Sustainability Association (ISSA) is a trade association whose members commit to conform to ISSF conservation measures. Learn more about ISSA member responsibilities and benefits, including the application process.
