In order to be recognised by the CGF’s Sustainable Supply Chain Initiative, social compliance schemes – and in the future, environmental schemes – have to undergo benchmarking according to the SSCI benchmark methodology and provide evidence that all SSCI Social and Scheme Management Benchmark Criteria are met.
Schemes that have earned SSCI recognition will be listed here, providing industry professionals with a trusted list of credible audit and certification programmes. Schemes currently undergoing benchmarking are also listed here to follow their progress through the benchmarking process.
By joining forces, the SSCI and the Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative (GSSI) are able to have a more meaningful impact within the seafood sector, avoid duplication by building on existing efforts and align market expectations towards third-party audit and certification programmes.
