Sustainability

Sustainability in Fishing

A Sustainable business focuses on meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs and this is exactly what makes us a quality seafood exporter in Bangladesh. BD Shrimp Trading has spent many years establishing its network as a seafood supplier to ensure that the products we offer are the finest available in Bangladesh.

As the leading seafood processing company, We believe that our growth and success are intertwined with the responsibility and respect for the ocean and to our future generations. Within the Bangladesh seafood industry, sustainability is of the highest importance. Sustainability initiatives are nationwide projects involving all fisheries agencies as part of a Sustainable Coastal and Marine Fisheries Project (SCMFP). BD Shrimp Trading is involved in the SCMFP. Our Suppliers and Fishermen are fully versed in the SCMFP. We ensure that the fish we purchase is caught in accordance with Sustainable and IUU (Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated) regulations. We do not purchase any fish from vessels which have not complied with IUU regulations.

Our company is committed to protect the marine ecosystems by ensuring no pollutants are released to the ocean or the environment through our business activities. We are a 100% green business emitting zero pollutants.

Our Commitment

In honoring our commitment to the ocean and in respect of the ocean species, BD Shrimp Trading have taken steps to encourage sustainable fishing practices in Bangladesh. Together with the BFFEA (Bangladesh Frozen Foods Exporters Association) and Bangladeshi Longline Fishery Improvement Project (FIP), BD Shrimp Trading have taken steps to improve the biological and ecological status of Bangladesh’s longline Shrimp and Cuttlefish fisheries and to develop and implement national and international fishery specific management measures that will maintain the biology and ecology towards “Sustainably Managed Fishery”.

Social Responsibility

BD Shrimp Trading aspires to a community that develops in a positive way, both economically and socially, and we therefore remain focused on our Corporate Social Responsibiliti (CSR).

We are aware that our success has been largely due to the support of that community. We strongly believe that we have a responsibility to share the benefits of that success with those around us, especially the less fortunate. Giving back to the community has always been a goal for us, and we look forward to continuing with it in the future.

Presently, we have been allocating considerable amount from the profit margin of our own fishing vessels and share with community as our Corporate & Social Responsibility.

Better Seafood for Tomorrow

Our concept of sustainability is about meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own. From harvesting to processing, we adhere to sustainability protocols in minimising wastage and impact to the environment.

At BD Shrimp Trading, our priority is making responsible decisions to meet our client’s seafood demands while being responsible to protect the environment and food supply of future generations.
