Bumble Bee products contain all wild caught salmon, with most of it coming from the pristine waters of Alaskan coast. The Alaskan salmon fishery is widely recognized as one of the best managed fisheries in the world and a model of effective fishery conservation. A testament to the strong management structure of the fishery is its sustainable seafood certification awarded by the Marine Stewardship Council and more recently the award of the independent, third-party Responsible Fisheries Management Certification.
