Email sent to the contact address for TFI Foods Ltd.
The email said that supplier in the company's supply chain, Rongcheng Puchen, received squid catch from a Zhoushan Ning Tai Ocean Fisheries vessel that engaged in unregulated fishing activity - the Ning Tai 58. Another 14 vessels owned by Zhoushan Ning Tai are linked to a range of environmental and human rights issues including forced labor, AIS spoofing, shark finning, and unauthorized transhipment. Unauthorized transhipment can undermine supply chain traceability by obfuscating the movement of catch from vessel to processor. The email asked for comment.
