Thai Union, the largest canned tuna company, is talking to Greenpeace on improving its tuna policy, said Greenpeace's Graham Forbes on Tuesday.

"The company is considering changes that could significantly reduce the use of destructive fishing methods, help minimize the risk of labor abuse in its supply chains, address illegal fishing and overfishing, and ensure the traceability of its seafood from ship to plate," he said.

The NGO said the purpose of its two-year campaign calling out Thai Union's tuna practices was to hopefully have Thai Union and its brands lead the industry in a new direction.
