Our team
These seafood aficionado’s (or “afishionado” as we like to call them) work hard every day to get cleaner oceans and honestly good seafood. Together we can make a difference.
Bart van Olphen
Founder
‘Fish is the only food we still obtain naturally from the wild. Therefore, it must not be about what we demand from the sea, but what the ocean gives us.’
Harm Jan van Dijk
Founder
‘Fish Tales is not a brand with a mission, but a mission from which a brand has emerged. Everything we do is based on the premise that we have to start at the source to ensure healthy oceans: small-scale fishing communities that work with and not against nature.’
