Clearer Fish Labels: Mandatory Origin and Production Method Disclosure
This bill aims to increase transparency regarding fish sold to consumers by strengthening labeling requirements. It mandates that information about whether fish is wild or farm-raised, along with its country of origin, must be displayed prominently. This ensures consumers can easily read and understand these crucial details before making a purchase.
Key points
Requires explicit labeling indicating if the fish is wild-caught or raised on a farm.
Country of origin and production method details must be placed conspicuously and use a font size no smaller than the fish description itself.
The goal is to empower consumers to make better-informed choices about the seafood they buy.
