SUSTAINABILITY

Shared responsibility for a finite resource

Fishing is an essential activity, but also one of the most exposed to the planet’s limits. Marine resources are not infinite, and their balance depends on decisions taken throughout the entire value chain, from origin to market.

In this context, international bodies such as the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) emphasise the need for shared responsibility among all stakeholders in the sector. Not only those who harvest the resource, but also those who commercialise it and structure commercial flows have a direct influence on the sustainability of the system.

From its role as a commercial operator, Azimut assumes this shared responsibility, understanding that every operation, every supplier and every long-term relationship contributes to shaping the sector’s overall impact. Operating with sound judgement, consistency and a long-term vision is not an option, but a necessary condition to preserve a common resource and ensure its continuity over time.

Responsible supplier selection

Azimut works with shipowners operating in different fishing grounds worldwide, all of them complying with regulated, controlled, and responsible fishing practices aligned with the sustainable use of marine resources. Supplier selection is based on objective criteria

This approach allows us to offer reliable and consistent products, reducing risk across the entire supply chain.

Traceability and documentary control

Traceability is a core element of our operations. Azimut manages all documentation associated with each transaction with rigour, ensuring clear identification of origin, catch conditions and compliance with the legal and sanitary requirements applicable in each market.

This level of control is not only a regulatory requirement, but also a key tool to guarantee safety, transparency and trust throughout the entire supply chain, for both suppliers and clients.

Product quality and resource efficiency

Specialisation in product frozen at sea allows quality to be preserved from the moment of catch, optimising conservation throughout the entire logistics process.

Efficient product management not only improves the final outcome, but also contributes to better use of the resource, reducing unnecessary losses and supporting a more sustainable supply chain from an operational perspective.

Long-term commitment

For Azimut, sustainability is directly linked to long-term business continuity. We are committed to building stable relationships with suppliers and clients, based on compliance, planning and shared responsibility in every operation.

We believe that only through rigorous, consistent and sustained management is it possible to contribute to a more balanced, reliable fishing sector prepared to meet future challenges.
