Brakes recognised for sustainable fisheries support for seventh time

Brakes has been named MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) UK Foodservice Wholesaler of the Year for the seventh successive year.

The honour is a testament to the commitment to quality and breadth of product range consistently demonstrated by Brakes and its partner, M&J Seafood.

“At a time when supporting sustainable fisheries is more important than ever, Brakes and M&J Seafood have continued to show leadership in offering customers traceable, sustainable seafood,” said Loren Hiller, MSC senior commercial officer, UK & Ireland. “I’d like to congratulate both businesses for helping to further our collective impact on ensuring seafood supplies are safeguarded into the future.”

Ben Wheeley, Brakes’ head of merchandising – fish & seafood, commented: “At Brakes we are committed to sourcing our products responsibly and to protecting the natural resources of our planet. This includes our efforts to source ethical and sustainable fish and seafood, and our work with organisations such as the Marine Stewardship Council.”
