Corporate Sustainability

At Crown Prince, sustainability means protecting ocean ecosystems, supporting responsible fishing communities, and reducing our operational footprint. In 2010, Crown Prince established a Green Team to identify and implement specific projects and goals to help the company manage and reduce its environmental impact. Crown Prince's sustainability work plan includes tracking and managing corporate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, waste, and recycling.

We are proud of our sustainability initiatives.

Please read more about how we reduced our carbon footprint, support renewable energy and report to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). Because of our efforts, in 2012 Renewable Choice selected our company for a case study. Sustainable seafood sourcing is a large part of our sustainability programming. We work with fisheries and aquaculture operations that follow responsible harvest practices and support long-term ecosystem health. Where possible, our products carry sustainability certifications (e.g., MSC, ASC, Friend of the Sea) or are sourced from fisheries recognized as well-managed by third-party evaluators.

Crown Prince has once again achieved our target!

After establishing the company's baseline emissions in 2012, we set a publicly available target to reduce emissions from market-based electricity usage by 75% through 2020. We surpassed this goal in 2020 and the target was updated to achieve a 100% reduction from market-based electricity. We plan to continue this effort, and we are proud to announce that we have once again achieved our 100% reduction target from market-based electricity in 2024!

Crown Prince also measures Scope 3 emissions (such as business travel, employee commuting, shipping and more), which go above and beyond the mandatory reporting standards. A greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory is a comprehensive accounting of all greenhouse gas emissions arising from the operational activities of an organization over a given period. It is one of the most valuable tools available to organizations looking to understand and reduce their carbon footprint. Crown Prince follows the internationally accepted Greenhouse Gas Protocol to calculate our GHG inventories.

Crown Prince supports renewable energy! Crown Prince is doing our part in supporting renewable energy. We are committed to procuring renewable energy credits equivalent to 100% of our electricity consumption. By purchasing certified renewable energy credits, we help increase demand for clean energy generation. In 2024, Crown Prince's purchased RECs (view REC certificate) have an impact that is similar to: Planting 1,611 tree seedlings and growing them for ten years*, or Avoiding the carbon emissions from consuming 10,962 gallons of gasoline*. *Source: https://www.epa.gov/energy/greenhouse-gas-equivalencies-calculator

Carbon Disclosure Project Since 2010, Crown Prince has reported the results of our sustainability efforts to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP).The CDP is an independent, not-for-profit, London- based organization working to drive GHG emissions reductions by businesses and cities. The CDP was established in 2000 and contains the largest database of corporate climate change information in the world. Crown Prince's latest submission for 2025 was awarded an overall score of B at the Management level, which CDP assigns to companies found to be taking coordinated action on climate issues. This is higher than the North American regional average of D, and the Food & Beverage sector average of B-.
