Sourcing:

• Wild Atlantic mackerel are a small, schooling fish that occur in great numbers. By choosing to eat these plentiful fish, it’s taking pressure off less abundant, larger species like tuna & swordfish.
• Partners harvest the mackerel off the northern coast of Spain, using hook & line, a method that results in little to no bycatch.
• The fishery is managed by the Good Fish Foundation, based in the Netherlands, to ensure that harvests are sustainable.
• Fishermen belong to cofradías, or brotherhoods, that date back to medieval times.
