BACH PHONG SEAFOOD as domestic processors have made a commitment to support Vina Tuna and doing FIP traceability code which recognized as beging able to provide FIP eligible products to an appropriate FIP Partner/Participant company.
FIP are pre-assessment, a number of MSC performance indicators (PIs) were scored such that the fishery would likely either fail under an MSC full assessment (score less than 60) or pass with conditions (score between 60 and 80).
These include the lack of a robust harvest strategy, lack of harvest control rules and tools, lack of data on species interactions in the fishery including shark interactions, insufficient measures for bycatch mitigation, limited understanding of ecosystem impacts from the fishery, and lack of stakeholder involvement in decision-making processes.
