Their story
Craft and territory
Empesca’t grew from artisanal fishers in l’Escala and l’Estartit seeking to sustain their craft and improve the health of target species and the marine environment.
Good practices
Traditional low-impact gear, traceability to the consumer, and marketing handled by the fishers themselves.
Fair price
The brand aims for a fair price for artisanal fishers so buying Empesca’t also supports the coast, marine resources and the territory.
