We're pleased to be involved in the development of the newly released UK Codes of Practice for proper handling and humane treatment of crustacea in the supply chain. We encourage everyone to use these codes developed by @SeafishUK @SAGB https://t.co/TCkByTR1j5

We recently attended the Catch Welfare Platform with @SAGB @seafishuk @NFFO_UK to explore practical solutions to improve animal welfare in fishing & seafood. #CWP23 brought together researchers, fisheries, tech business, Governments & NGOs. #WelfareSolutions #CodesOfPractice

At Macduff, we believe that humane treatment of decapod crustacea is important. That's why we're involved in the development of Codes of Practice for decapod welfare. #AnimalWelfare #Crustacea #Welfare #Crab #Lobster

[Seafish @seafishuk]

At last week’s @SAGB conference Paul and Steve of Cumulus Consultants presented on a project to create Codes of Practice for use throughout the decapod crustacean supply chain. (1/2)

Happy #WorldOceanDay 💙🌎🌊

Today we celebrate everything the Ocean gives to us: we simply couldn’t survive without it. 💙

We’re making a deal to protect the Ocean by focusing on ending overfishing. ➡️ https://t.co/epjtZvIcst #TheOceanandUs

Claire Pescod of @MacduffShell is speaking next at our #FishingAndFMPs event. She’s sharing insights into the progress of the King Scallop #FMP & key themes emerging from stakeholder engagement. Sustainability was identified as a priority, & co-management was seen positively.

Seafood businesses, government and NGOs will be invited to feed into the creation of best practice guidance for handling and despatch of live crustacea.

Great to see #scottishseafood in the latest edition of Italian magazine Food with a focus on our fantastic Scottish #langoustines and @MacduffShell. Check it out on page 51: https://t.co/TLvsgfAUcU

We're thinking holistically with #TaketheBait - working on a solution to plastic pollution in the ocean, whilst also designing a more practical, efficient bait bag for whelk fishermen. #Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. @BangorUni @SeaTrustWales

[Seafood From Scotland @SeafoodFromScot]

Inshore Scottish waters provide the perfect environment for #langoustine to thrive! With a soft, meaty texture these versatile shellfish cook in minutes and are packed full of nutrients harvested from Scotland's mineral-rich waters.

Project UK is a collaborative partnership working towards an environmentally sustainable future for UK fisheries through the implementation of credible FIPS. We’re very proud to facilitate this work with all partners that are involved. Read our blog here: https://t.co/rAjZmW3HhI

[Macduff Shellfish @MacduffShell]

Incredible research is happening behind the scenes as part of our #TaketheBait project. A team of specialists at @BangorUni have explored how bait bags used in whelk fishing can be more easily recycled. @SeaTrustWales https://t.co/CJRaVVROMk

We're hiring! As Macduff continues to grow, we are recruiting for General Operative positions at our Mintlaw and Stornoway processing facilities in Scotland.

Langoustines are also closely related to the lobster and are prized for their vibrant orange-pink colouring.
