• Irish Fish Canners mission is to ensure the sustainability of its quality products – protecting the environment and natural resources while providing a professional sea to shelf service to its customers.
• Within its current sustainability plan, Irish Fish Canners set a target in 2018 to reduce its water consumption by 35% by the end of 2022.
• The company surpassed this target in 2020 by reaching a reduction of 43.3%.
• This decrease in consumption is due to a change in its hygiene practices which increased the number of deep cleans per week to replace smaller regular cleans which consume more water.
• In addition, Irish Fish Canners repaired some cracks in the Kipper line which had caused water loss and have installed a new washer system to eliminate leaks.
Irish Fish Canners represents the very best in fish canning. With 40 years experience in the business, it is 100% family-owned and run.
The company is the largest and sole fish canning facility in Ireland. Located along the Wild Atlantic Way, it is in close proximity to Ireland's premier deep-sea fishing port, Killybegs. Its unique location ensures access to the world's finest fish.
As a result of added value, the business has now evolved into a major canned seafood provider to a number of world-class leading brands in global markets. John West has been its biggest customer for more than 35 years.
