ASC is the abbreviation of Aquaculture Stewardship Council. As a non-profit and independent international organization, it is responsible for managing the world's leading aquaculture certification and labeling. It was founded in 2010 by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the Dutch Business Creative Foundation (IDH) to manage the global standards for responsible aquaculture.

ASC is based on four main platform construction standards:

• Environment
• Society
• Animal Biosafety
• Food safety

Products that have passed ASC certification must also pass CoC certification. This provides rules for obtaining, processing and selling ASC certified products.
