New Zealand marine farmers operate one of the worlds strictest seafood quality assurance programmes, meeting the standards set by the New Zealand Ministry for Primary Industries, United States Food and Drug Administration and the European Union, Mr Vitasovich said.
Both the shellfish, and the water in which they are grown are rigorously tested before harvesting takes place.
Fresh, sustainable, delicious, nutritious Greenshell Mussels and Pacific Oysters are the taste of summer, proudly grown in your back yard.
New Zealanders can enjoy farmed mussels and oysters knowing they are eating the safest shellfish in the world.
