World Tuna Day
Meet our frozen Vegan Green Tuna
Today is World Tuna Day: a UN initiative aiming to raise awareness about sustainable fishing. No better time to put our plant-based product, Vegan Green Tuna, in the spotlight.
Last year we introduced our Vegan Green Tuna, which was received very positively by our customers with one drawback: it was only available chilled with a shelf life of 4 months. We are excited to announce that the tuna is now also available frozen, extending its shelf life to 18 months.
So our customers can stock up, even with smaller orders and the product can reach a wider market.
Vegan Green Tuna: flavourful input for new product innovation
Now is the time to surprise your customers with new vegan products and/or meals. With the texture and taste of real tuna, with Vegan Green Tuna you know you are getting a quality ingredient that opens up a world of possibilities. Sustainable and, most importantly, delicious!
This tuna is ideal for use in salads, pizza and meals. It has a fine texture and taste that is easy to process in various applications. These properties remain after processing in the end product”
