THAI UNION APPOINTS NEW SUSTAINABILITY DIRECTOR FOR EUROPE

Thai Union appoints new sustainability director for Europe. Chris Shearlock has joined Thai Union as their new Sustainability Director for Europe. He follows Tracy Murai in this role, who has been promoted to Assistant Director, Global Fisheries Sustainability.

“Chris’ appointment comes at an important moment in the group’s sustainability journey as we will soon announce a major update to our sustainability strategy SeaChange® with new and expanded goals and commitments through 2030,” said Adam Brennan, Group Director, Sustainability at Thai Union.

He will play a key role across Europe and Africa in the roll-out of SeaChange® 2030 and will be working closely with the group’s commercial teams to ensure Thai Union supports its customers in achieving their sustainability commitments in the best ways possible. Chris brings with him a wealth of experience joining Thai Union from Princes in the UK, where he worked as Senior Sustainable Sourcing Manager.

Thai Union promoted Tracy Murai, who held this role previously, to Assistant Director, Global Fisheries Sustainability:

“I am excited to now be able to take my skills to a global level and continue to implement our sustainable practices in the fisheries we source from around the world,” she said.

Thai Union will further build its global sustainability team as SeaChange® 2030 will introduce aggressive goals, which will be the broadest reaching in the industry and establish new standards on a global scale.
