Louisiana Wild Seafood Certification Program

The purpose of the Louisiana Wild Seafood Certification Program (LWSCP) is to develop a brand that guarantees labeled wild-caught seafood products are from Louisiana. Seafood products possessing the program label are taken by a Louisiana licensed fisherman, landed in Louisiana, and processed by a Louisiana processor. LWSCP strives to increase consumer confidence, help commercial fishermen and processors to receive a premium price for their product, and also ensure Louisiana’s seafood industry is able to compete and endure in the constantly changing global marketplace.


 

Program Eligibility

This voluntary program is available to Louisiana licensed commercial fishermen, fresh product dealers, wholesale/retail seafood dealers and processors, retail seafood dealers, restaurants, and grocers who handle Louisiana seafood products. Out of state retail seafood dealers, restaurants, and grocers will also be able to participate if sourcing LWSCP labeled seafood from Louisiana program participants.

To apply for the program view the program guidelines and follow the instructions listed on the registration portal to create an account.

Program participation is valid for one year from the date of approval and can be renewed up to 90 days from the expiration date.
