Princes Tuna Chunks in Water

Princes is a leading international food and drink brand with a rich history dating back to 1880, when it was established as a fish importing business in Liverpool, United Kingdom. Over the decades, the brand expanded from its seafood roots to offer a wide range of pantry staples. The specific product shown is tuna chunks in water, which bears the MSC certification logo, indicating it is sourced from sustainable fisheries.

Manufacturing for this specific can takes place in Mauritius, where Princes operates significant processing facilities. This location is strategic for the sourcing and packing of high-quality skipjack and yellowfin tuna. Ownership of the brand has transitioned through major global entities; for many years, it was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Mitsubishi Corporation. However, as of late 2024, the brand was acquired by Newlat Food S.p.A., an Italian multi-brand food group, consolidating its position in the European market.
