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.’
Laura van Hamburg
Impact Manager
‘We often forget that our food is produced by people. Fish Tales changes this: we give small fisheries a platform and build bridges between fisherman and the consumer.
Daan de Rooij
Product Manager
‘Because Fish Tales is a young company, I get to experience all phases of product development. It’s just very cool to see an idea come to life and become a product with a story.’
Maura van Styrum
Global Brand Manager
‘At Fish Tales, a great mission meets a clear story – this way of working inspires me!”’
Emiel Spelt
Operations
‘I love fish and at Fish Tales I can contribute to the fact that not only me, but also the rest of the world can enjoy it responsibly. That’s what’s great about my job.’
Stephanie Andrei
Junior International Brand Manager
‘Working at Fish Tales allows me to get active and make a difference in the world of sustainable fish. Choosing sustainable fish is an easy choice, and consumers can make a major contribution to the protection of global fish stocks if they choose the right products.’
Sacha de Vries
Digital Brand Manager
‘For years I’ve been on the fence on how environmentally responsible seafood can be – until I discovered Fish Tales. Now I help people to get clear information on sustainable fish and I can enjoy fish again with a clear conscious.’
Rosa Zonneveld
