Russian Fishery Shipowners (FSA) got Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification for their pollock fishery in the Sea of Okhotsk . Futhermore, the Russian Fishery Company (RFC) is a member of the FSA and one of the top-three Russian manufacturers of wild whitefish. Also, RFC focuses on pollock and Pacific herring. On the other side, Pollock Catchers Association was left behind.
