Origin

Our sardines come from Cornwall – hence the name Cornish sardines. The English version of Saint-Tropez is Newlyn, its harbor is about 1,722,000 sqft making it the home port to one of the biggest fishing fleets in the country.

Fish with a story

The family of sardine fisherman David has been fishing for generations for Cornish pilchard sardines. He fishes on request mostly: “We have a very strict no-waste-policy. No demand? Then we don’t ship out. When we do have requests, we make sure that we don’t over-fish the data. We hope by doing it this way, the generations after us can also do this type of work.”

Fishing method

The fishermen lure the sardines from so-called purse-seine-boats with a lamp to the water’s surface and then put a net around the school. When they pull the net down, it forms a basket around the school.

Because sardines swim in compact schools, this catching method is very selective - and doesn’t harm the environment. Young fish can easily escape between the holes in the nets and the fishermen don’t fish during mating season. This guarantees a stable population.
