Goals / Remit
ORTHONGEL is a 1901 Law Association created in 1973. As an organization of producers, defined in the settlement (CE) n°104/2000 of the Council, its main aims are:
- to improve the conditions of sale of the production of its members,
- to encourage responsible and sustainable fishing methods,
