At Seatech Corporation we believe it is vital to manage fisheries in a sustainable manner. It is not only essential to be good stewards of the lands and oceans of the earth for the sake of our environment, but sustainable practices are crucial for the socio-economic health of nations as well.

Servicio Nacional de Pesca (SERNAP), the governing body that overseas the fisheries industry in Chile, promotes this view of sustainability as well. SERNAP implements industrial fishing regulations that ensure the ecological health of the ocean and the abundance of marine wildlife. The artisanal fishermen in Chile rely on the ocean for their livelihood which is another reason SERNAP implements these regulations

Sustainability of the worlds seafood supply is for the most part looked at from an environmental standpoint. After all it is the environment that is impacted by overfishing of our natural resources and destruction of habitat. SERNAP not only focuses on the environmental side but to the social and economic issues as well. They understand the great responsibility of good stewardship. To them it is not only an environmental responsibility but economic as well. By maintaining sustainable fish stocks through regulation of the industry they are not only saving the environment they are maintaining the livelihood for the fishermen of Chile’s commercial fisheries.
