One of the most dangerous forms of debris threatening the global oceanic marine environment and countless wildlife species is derelict fishing gear. These abandoned or lost pieces of “ghost gear” continue to trap, entangle and potentially kill fish and animals, destroy habitat and hinder navigation. In 2023, Rich’s leading seafood brands, SeaPak and Morey’s, joined the Ocean Conservancy’s Global Ghost Gear Initiative (GGGI) to continue advocating for the responsible management of fishing gear, raise awareness, and support the organization’s worldwide retrieval, disposal and prevention efforts.
