In partnership with Nikkei ESG, Seafood Legacy co-hosts the Sustainable Seafood Summit (TSSS), one of Asia’s largest events dedicated to seafood sustainability. Since its inaugural edition in 2015, this flagship event has brought together leaders from Japan and around the world to share global insights and drive discussions on solutions adapted to the unique context of Asia. By uniting players in industry, governments and academia with financial institutions and NGOs, this forum is the heart of the transformation that is orchestrating the future of the industry in Japan and across Asia.
Seafood Legacy Times is Japan’s first specialized media outlet dedicated to seafood sustainability. We cover a comprehensive range of topics, from cutting-edge global business trends and the latest scientific findings to guides on ever-evolving international laws and regulations. As a knowledge hub for seafood markets throughout Asia, Seafood Legacy Times continues to lay the foundation for an economy that supports a sustainable seafood industry, with the goal of building a society where all players in the market can demonstrate accountability.
Seafood Legacy also runs the S.E.A.FOOD Platform Design Lab., a project that comprehensively analyzes the movement in Japan over the past decade to chart the next wave of transformation across Asia. By quantifying past achievements and logically mapping out the mechanisms to be able to analyze objectivityobjectiblythat will form the future foundation of society, the project aims to design in detail the ideal pre-competitive collaborative platform to support a sustainable market, ultimately guiding the next steps of market transformation.
Seafood Legacy serves as a catalyst for co-creation that combines the front-line knowledge of civil society organizations (CSOs) across Asia with Japan’s market impact. Working closely with organizations across the region, we design comprehensive solutions to structural challenges such as IUU fishing and poor working conditions. We are orchestrating a transformation model driven by Asia that synergizes individual local initiatives to create a region-wide movement that brings true effectiveness to global supply chains.

We support financial institutions to reduce the risks of investing in and financing seafood companies, and to implement ESG investment and financing in line with international trends.

We provide planning support from formulating sustainable procurement policies for seafood to distribution and marketing strategies that are in line with the latest international standards.
