SeaChange® is Thai Union’s award-winning sustainability strategy.

We have embraced our role as a leader for positive change as one of the largest seafood companies in the world. This means putting sustainability at the heart of our business. We work every day to ensure the company values we embrace are being translated into real and demonstrable change for good, and it is an honor to be recognized as sustainable development leaders.

And while it is great to be recognized, we also see that we are on a journey and there are always ways to further improve.

Looking ahead, Thai Union will continue to make progress and maintain our focus on collaboration to address the sustainability challenges confronting the global seafood industry. This includes everything from digital traceability, providing worker connectivity at sea and addressing hunger through food donations, to educating children and providing nutritional information to our local communities. We are also working across industries because the challenges faced by the seafood industry, such as human rights and safe migration, are not unique to seafood.
