Dear Mark Brown,As a supporter of the marine conservation organisation Bite-Back, I wanted to congratulate you on your recent decision to remove monkfish from your stores. It is a decision that is inspired and full of integrity. Thank you.
Significantly, this important outcome sends a clear message to the world that it is no longer necessary to sell marine species that are regarded as being inherently vulnerable and threatened by overfishing.
Above that, the action demonstrates compassion for the oceans and a clear understanding of the significant role retailers can play in safeguarding the seas.
I hope that you remain proud of your actions and continue to uphold the new standards for retailer-led marine conservation that you have helped create.
Once again, thank you for your positive contribution towards safeguarding the future of our oceans.
Yours sincerely
