View notes

Health & Safety: Three fishermen died aboard the Chinese vessel Tai Xiang 5 during an 8-month Indian Ocean voyage beginning February 2025. Crew suffered symptoms of beriberi from poor food and dirty water, were denied medical care, and worked 16-hour days for roughly £198/month. The Environmental Justice Foundation warns the catch may have reached EU, UK, and Asian markets with little screening.

Tai Xiang 5 is related to at least one company downstream, including one ship.
