• 1) There are a series of experiences in Mexico, Latin America and the world. We rely on different projects, technologies, and financial support to be able to develop sustainable projects; however, we must move forward and generate faster and deeper changes because the challenges are greater every time.
• 2) Every sector represented at the Summit is aware that they need each other so that the production, commercialization and consumption of fishery and aquaculture products may be sustainable, responsible, and legal, focusing specifically on those that come from Mexico and Latin America.
• 3) We had the opportunity of counting with the presence of fishery and production chamber representatives from Chile, Peru, Argentina, and Costa Rica. In addition, businesspeople from Canada and the United States as well as parallel associations to COMEPESCA from Japan and Canada (Seapact and Seafood Legacy, respectively), which after the conclusions presented, they are fully open to offer their support.
• 4) We are aware of the impossibility to achieve a sustainable activity without legal order, control, transparency, and accountability. It is in this function in which the state plays a fundamental role that can not be avoided or weakened. Industry and civil society are willing to support and be co-responsible in achieving effective legality and order in the sector.
• 5) Scientific and technical knowledge are vital to know the amount of fishery resources we can count on, their current status, and to evaluate if we are achieving the established goals within the sector. The path is clear, but we must evaluate and measure the progress made, and for that, support and recognition to scientific and technical work is essential.
• 6) Within the commercial sector, every channel of wholesale and retail fish and seafood consumption is conscious and is already acting in a joint way. Small restaurants, specialized stores, self-service shops, importers, large restaurant groups and marketing companies, with great presence in the territory, were represented.
• 7) For achieving fair and loyal competition it is necessary to act under an updated legal framework, that enforces clear labelling regarding species, origin, traceability in the value chain, net content, phosphates, and sustainability certifications, so that consumers can make their best decisions.
• 8) All the aquaculture projects in inner and ocean waters must have sustainability elements, integrated in the production stages, that is: breeding, feeding, fattening facilities, residue water management, and energy consumption.
• 9) Participant organizations are willing to continue on the sustainability path in an independent way; however, everyone is invited to participate in this movement that will benefit us today and generations to come.

The fisheries and aquaculture industry represent a key sector for economic development and food sovereignty in our country. The effort of every participant in the value chain has been fundamental for Mexico to have positioned as an example in sustainability. It is essential to integrate this vision so that our industry continues being productive in the future.
