Wing of St Mawes sponsor hatchery
Published on: 16/06/2011
As a sponsor of the National Lobster Hatchery, Wing of St Mawes have launched their 'buy one, stock one' scheme. They will donate 50p for every lobster bought online, helping to conserve the vulnerable lobster populations and preserve the coastal marine bio-diversity of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
A quote from Rob Wing, the Cornish Fishmonger:
"I've been buying fish and seafood from local fishermen since the early 1980's, during this time I've seen plenty of changes in the fishing industry, most for the better but some not so good. I have a teenage daughter and son, my ardent wish is to see my efforts passed on to them for the future; that means looking after fish and the fishing industry!"
“What does that last paragraph mean?”
"It means we are committed to a healthy future for Cornish fish and fishing." We fully support the responsible fishing schemes operated by the Seafish Industry Authority: this is done by working with fishermen to ensure better working practices are implemented and wherever possible, buying best fish from local inshore boats. It also means not recommending our customers to a species we feel is under pressure in our waters; instead advising and guiding them towards really fresh fish that is readily available in good volumes.
