HOW DO WE GET OUR SEAFOOD?
Very carefully.
Whether you’re a guest, employee or business partner, you can be confident that the seafood we serve is sourced in a way that is safe, ethical, responsible and sustainable. In fact, all of Red Lobster’s seafood comes from a worldwide network of trusted suppliers that follow our industry-leading quality and safety standards.
Wild-Caught
All of our wild seafood is caught in a safe, sustainable way. This includes favorites like live Maine lobster and snow crab, plus seasonal catches like Argentine Red Shrimp and Alaska Sockeye Salmon.
Sustainably Farm-Raised
All of our farm-raised seafood comes from certified, sustainable farms that follow Best Aquaculture Practices defined by the Global Aquaculture Alliance’s Aquaculture Certification Council (ACC).
A Commitment to Fresh, Seasonal and Local
Every day, our award-winning Today’s Fresh Fish menu features seasonal selections that are flown in or sourced from nearby waters—never frozen.
PROTECTING OUR RESOURCES
since day one.
We’ve always had standards that help protect and replenish some of our most valuable resources.
You’ll never see endangered or overfished seafood on our menu.
We have sponsored the Fishery Improvement Partnership Fund, which finances projects that tackle overfishing head-on.
We help protect the lobster population.
We helped launch the Atlantic Lobster Sustainability Foundation, a nonprofit that works with fishermen, buyers and other stakeholders to preserve the lobster population and keep the industry stable and sustainable. Plus, we never serve lobsters that weigh over four pounds, because they produce the most eggs.
We’re leading the way to higher sustainability standards.
This includes being a founder of the Global Aquaculture Alliance, whose certification program has become one of the most influential forces in sustainably farmed seafood. We were also the first to adopt Best Aquaculture Practice standards for shrimp, salmon, tilapia and other seafood.
