Petit Navire is an iconic French brand specializing in canned seafood, most notably tuna and sardines. Founded in 1932 by Parfait Merani in Douarnenez, Brittany, the brand remains a staple in French households for its commitment to high-quality tinned fish. The manufacturing occurs across several global locations depending on the catch, frequently including facilities in France, the Seychelles, and Ghana to ensure proximity to the fishing grounds.

Over the decades, the brand's ownership has transitioned through several major corporations. After being part of the Heinz group and MW Brand, it was eventually acquired by Thai Union Group based in Thailand. Thai Union is one of the world's largest seafood producers, managing a diverse portfolio of international brands. Despite its global ownership, Petit Navire maintains its strong French identity and brand heritage while following the parent company's sustainability and responsible fishing initiatives.
