Thai Union sees five major trends affecting business amid changing market environments, Chansiri said. They are: currency fluctuations; emerging disruptive technologies; a global growth-engine slowdown; geopolitical risk; and global free trade at risk. Moreover, food byproducts are an excellent source of ingredients for nutraceuticals, and possess many components that are excellent for human health, he added. At the two-day event, Thai Union presented its Yellowfin Tuna Slices to visitors, one of the new innovative products developed by the group’s Global Innovation Incubator. Yellowfin Tuna Slices recently won the “2018 Seafood Excellence Award” in the Best New Foodservice Product category at the “Seafood Expo North America”, held in Boston in March, and was a finalist for the “Seafood Excellence Global Awards” at the “Seafood Expo Global”, held in Brussels in April.
