Traceability in Seafood Supply Chains

Traceability in seafood supply chains is the ability to track and verify the journey of seafood from its origin to the final consumer. It involves recording information about where, when, and how the seafood was caught, processed, and distributed. This process helps ensure quality, safety, and sustainability by enabling quick identification of sources in case of contamination or illegal fishing. For consumers and regulators, traceability provides transparency and confidence that the seafood meets health, environmental, and ethical standards.
