The latest announcement by the European Commission to delist Thailand from the “Yellow Card” has underpinned all concerned sectors to strictly stick to  traceability.

CP Foods is also  encouraging  its fishmeal suppliers to take up IFFO RS standard to ensure sustainable growth.

Dr Sujint Thammasart, Chief Operating Officer/ Aquaculture Business of CP Foods, said the company will double the number of fishmeal plants with IFFO RS certification by five suppliers this year.

This plan will help improve standard  at the  manufacturing lines and  ensure traceability practices of raw materials coming  from legal sources.

Good practices from Thailand will spread to all  CP Foods’ aquaculture operations across the world by expanding the scope of the Fishery Improvement Projct (FIP) from Thailand to  its overseas  aquaculture operations in Vietnam, the Philippines and India, he said.
