The tag allows consumers to trace the exact origin of the crustacean and, therefore, to have the assurance that they buy a product of superior quality, caught in the Gaspé Peninsula in the greatest respect for the environment. By entering the alphanumeric code appearing on the blue tag, the consumer can view a video of the captain who caught his lobster, discover the name of the boat and its fishing area. This is a unique way to bring consumers and their seafood harvesters closer together!
