Chris Shearlock has joined seafood company Thai Union as its new Sustainability Director for Europe. Shearlock follows Tracy Murai in the role, following her promotion 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.
Shearlock joins Thai Union from Princes in the UK, where he worked as Senior Sustainable Sourcing Manager.
On her promotion, Murai said, “I am excited to take my skills to a global level and focus working more with our suppliers and in the regions where we source fish from around the world to create leading sustainability programmes for people and planet.”
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.
