Positive impact practices

Mures is recognised as a pioneer in sustainability in the seafood industry. For example, the restaurant catches its own fish to supply its kitchens, which promotes responsible fishing. As a result, the company has obtained certification from the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC), guaranteeing rigorous traceability and responsible fishing practices. It has removed Tasmanian farmed salmon from its menus in favour of exclusively certified sustainable products and has been recognised for its recycling and environmental impact reduction initiatives. Mures also supports marine education and conservation programs, such as The Great Southern Reef Foundation which helps combat the impact of climate change and invasive sea urchin on Tasmania’s endangered giant kelp forests.
