Fishermen are obliged to register where they fish and in which area the fish is caught. In this way it’s always traceable where the fish come from.
On the map below you can see in which area the fish is caught.
This is also mentioned on each Queens Ocean packaging. For detailed information we refer to the website of the FAO (Food and Agricultural Organization).
