Colombia: Violence and threats against workers at fisheries company Seatech behind ethical marketing

At the City Gross hypermarket in Stockholm, we buy a tin of Natuna brand tuna. It costs ten SEK and comes from Colombia.

The shiny tin contains not only protein-rich fish but also a murky story of how a transnational company uses ethical marketing as part of its pretence at fairness and responsibility.

Mål & Medel visited the port town of Cartagena in Colombia and met the local trade union at the tuna factory. The story they told us is hardly about a fair and responsible employer.
