Bangkok, 1 December 2025 – Thai Union has received the Distinguished Leadership Excellence Award at this year’s Thailand Corporate Excellence Awards.
The award was presented by the Thailand Management Association and Sasin School of Management. Thai Union’s CFO, Ludovic Garnier, accepted the honour at the Waldorf Astoria Bangkok.
It recognises companies with strong leadership and sustainable business practices.
A key Seafood Supplier To Global Retailers
Thai Union is one of the world’s biggest seafood companies. It supplies tuna, shrimp, and other seafood to major retailers, including Tesco, Aldi, Sainsbury’s, and Carrefour — often under private-label brands.
It also owns branded lines like John West, Chicken of the Sea, and King Oscar.
The award highlights Thai Union’s stability and leadership in a sector where retailers need trusted, compliant, and scalable seafood supply.
Linked to SeaChange® 2030
Thai Union plans to make all seafood 100% responsibly sourced by 2030, under its global SeaChange® strategy. That includes:
cutting emissions across factories and fleets
improving traceability in the supply chain
preventing illegal fishing and forced labour
reducing ocean plastics and packaging waste
It’s also part of SeaBOS, a group of global seafood firms working to clean up the industry, and was the first Thai company to join the UN Global Compact.
Part Of A Strong Awards Streak
This win follows two others in recent weeks:
Sustainability Disclosure Award, for its ESG reporting
AMCHAM Gold Impact Award, for the fifth year in a row
Together, the three awards show recognition from both Thai and international bodies.
Why It Matters
This strengthens Thai Union’s standing as a stable, high-performing supplier — especially in a market where competitors like Bolton, Princes, and Pacific West are also vying for share.
It sends a clear message to retailers and investors: this is a supplier with strong leadership, sustainable operations, and global reach.
