O2 did a truly wonderful job. The fishery assessment they delivered was exactly what we needed and they provided it in a very short timeframe. We don’t have any recommendations for improvement!

NFI is no stranger to working on challenging Fisheries Improvement Projects (FIP), so it made sense to partner with O2 on the first comprehensive crab FIP in China. Despite this project being largely uncharted territory, O2 maintained its ability to work in a timely and thorough manner. Their professional team requires essentially no micromanagement and integrated seamlessly with our staff and stakeholders on the ground.

We require all our salmon to be sourced from producers actively involved in a credible, public FIP, or certified according to credible, third-party standards. Working with Ocean Outcomes is a great way to help meet your sustainability benchmarks.

Japan has a long history of fishing; it's part of our culture. That's why it's so important for us to work with people who understand Japanese culture and Japanese fisheries. The O2 team understands this; they work with us, not against us, as we strive for more sustainable fisheries.

O2's Analytics Team clearly defined the landscape of three important Japanese fisheries, their respective supply chains, and opportunities for engagement. This gave us new insight for how to proceed with pilot selection, and helped us advance our science based fishery improvement goals.

As small scale fishermen in Baja Mexico, we are motivated to ensure our fishing practices and fishing company policies are supporting a healthy community. But the path to doing as much can be very complicated. That is where O2 has been valuable — they support us on our journey, sharing insight and recommendations that help empower us to make the changes we seek.
