WorldFish and the African Organisation for Standardisation (ARSO) have announced a partnership that will promote consumer confidence in African fish for domestic and export markets.
The memorandum of understanding (MoU) will allow the two organizations to work together on standards that will provide an Africa-wide framework for producers, distributors and sellers to ensure safety and quality at all stages of the value chain, from catch to the plate. Focus will be given to the sustainability of fisheries, hygiene and storage requirements as well as traceability aspects.
