WHAT IS MR.GOODFISH?
Mr.Goodfish is a European programme launched
in 2010 by three aquariums: Nausicaá in France,
Acquario di Genova in Italy and Aquarium Finis-
terrae in Spain. The Prince Albert II of Monaco
Foundation coordinates the program in the Medi-
terranean since 2013. Its aim is to reduce human
pressure on fragile stocks, by developing positive
behaviour among the fisheries sector and consu-
mers.
To do this, each season and for each coast,
Mr.Goodfish publishes a list of products recom-
mended by their expert committee depending on
the size of the fish, its seasonality and resource
levels on the website www.mrgoodfish.com.
Mr.Goodfish adopts a positive approach which
does not ban consumption but rather offers an al-
ternative to professionals and the general public,
so they can make positive changes.
In France, over 500 professionals have already
joined this programme. Amongst the new
members, the Lycée Technique et Hôtelier de
Monaco and the restaurant Plantxa made their
commitments official by signing the Mr. Goodfish
partnership agreement on 11 April 2018 during
the “From the sea to our plates” event.
