Why traceability and certification are essential pillars of successful seafood export

Introduction

In a global context where international markets impose strict standards and consumers grow increasingly demanding, seafood importers must exercise greater vigilance.

At SeaOptima, we understand that beyond the quality of Moroccan fish, cephalopods, and canned products, traceability and certifications have become essential commercial assets. That’s why we’ve made them the cornerstone of our export offer.

1. What Is Seafood Traceability and Why Is It Critical?

Traceability is the ability to track every step in a product’s journey — from the sea to the consumer’s plate.

At SeaOptima:
● Our products come from FAO Zone 34 (Eastern Central Atlantic)
● Every batch is tracked through internal systems: trawler, catch date, port, temperature, packaging
● This monitoring ensures freshness, origin, and regulatory compliance

Your advantage as an importer:
→ No grey areas, 100% transparency
→ Your authorities, clients, or distributors get full visibility and documentation
