The exclusive specialization in the fish/seafood sector enables AWF to offer consulting services in a breadth and depth on this subject which is probably unrivaled in the German-speaking world. This particularly includes the exact analysis of value chains and sales channels, the assessment of consumer preferences and complex calculation models for seafood.
In addition, we also focus on very practical topics such as the creation of seminar concepts and their implementation, the rough planning of fish departments, specialist articles and lectures in our field.
Commitment to sustainability:
The biological wealth of the seas and inland waters on our planet is one of the most valuable resources of mankind and must be protected.
Against this background, AWF is explicitly committed to the sustainable use of this resource.
We support all efforts for a responsible, economically viable fishery and aquaculture that adequately takes
- Preservation of the population
- Fair payment for fishermen and fish farmers
- Avoidance of by-catches (discard)
- Protection of the ecosystems
into account.
