    Hi All

     

    We have an organic certified Pacific Oyster from New Zealand, certified
    locally by Agriquality ( who are IFOAM accredited ),

     

    Have been asked by an American supermarket if we can also provide USDA
    certification

     

    I'm trying to find the standards for USDA but viewing their website can
    only find issues relating to non seafood products, and I believe there
    may be no specific standard for seafood ( if so what is the status for
    us to promote ours as organic? ),

     

    Is anyone able to confirm what the standards / situation is, and best
    organization to progress further with?

     

     

    Many thanks

     

     

     

      

    Kind Regards

    Ian Langridge
