For SFA
members to list products for sale on this web site, SFA requires a
copy of participating members HACCP Plan on file in our office. SFA
requires the seafood product be from a fishery operating under a
bonafide fishery management plan. The country of origin, whether
wild caught or pond raised and proper net weight must be available
to the buyer for traceability reasons. The seafood
products listed operate under a functioning HACCP Plan including
written Standard Operating Procedures for sanitation and avoidance
of pathogens.
Florida Fish & Wildlife Commission puts restaurants which are buying illegal seafood, on notice that they could lose their licenses and be subject to a minimum fine of $2500 for the first offense. Click here
