Fishery Improvement Projects (FIPs) are multi-stakeholder initiatives that aim to help fisheries work towards sustainability.
Increasing market demand for sustainable seafood has led to considerable growth in the number of FIPs. The MSC supports fisheries in FIPs that are committed to achieving certification with our In-Transition to MSC (ITM) program.
