Our services
We are specialized in providing our customers with novel and high-quality advice and support on fisheries and seafood value chains.
ISCG is involved in the improvement of future seafood solutions. We bring up perspectives on how development activities should be directed so that fisheries and seafood businesses can be developed cost-effectively and so that fishery livelihoods can more broadly respond to the needs of seafood production in the midst of various crises. We help our clients to predict future outcomes and ensure best practice approaches, and we promote efficiency and security throughout the fisheries supply chain.
It is not possible to increase the supply of fish by capture fishing alone. Sustainable and environmentally friendly aquaculture (fish farming) is needed too. This involves also fish produced in recirculation aquaculture systems (RAS).

Our Seafood Vision 2030
Strengthened competitive advantage and enhanced business value.
Food production is in a crisis and the global food system is in dire need of renewal. At the same time, food consumption trends around the world support increasing the supply of healthy fish food. The supply must be versatile and has to include domestic and imported fish, wild fish and farmed fish. It is also paramount that an increasing part of fishery production is used for human food and that the side-streams are effectively utilized.
It is not possible to increase the supply of fish by capture fishing alone. Sustainable and environmentally friendly aquaculture (fish farming) is needed too. This involves also fish produced in recirculation aquaculture systems (RAS).
