  • 4 Canned Tuna Processors
    4 CANNED TUNA PROCESSORS 4.1 General Overview This chapter presents an overview of the current status of the major global canned tuna processors and in doing so, highlights some the key issues shaping the future of the global canning industry, as well as potential implications for Pacific Island countries and their tuna industries. The contemporary global canned tuna processing industry developed in the mid 1950s, in conjunction with the development of industrial-scale tropical tuna fisheries.319 A large increase in the demand for canned tuna in the late 1970s-early 1980s fuelled significant growth of purse seine fishing fleets, as well as canned tuna production facilities required to process the rapidly expanding supply of raw canning materials. Originally, canned tuna production was dominated by the US mainland, EU and Japan, who collectively accounted for more than two thirds of total global production until the mid-1980s. With the development of tuna canning industries in the Philippines and Thailand in the early 1980s, and later, canning industries in other lower-cost sites of production in South East Asia, Central/Latin America and the Indian Ocean, the dominance of the former three major producers diminished. Today, global canned tuna production exceeds 1.7 million metric tonnes annually.320 Like the canned tuna fishing industry, the canned tuna processing industry is both complex and dynamic. Global processing operations are currently influenced by factors such as increasing cost of raw materials and other production inputs, tuna resource sustainability issues, overcapacity, complex tariff regimes, increasingly stricter standards (i.e. labour, quality, food safety and environment) and changing consumer preferences, to name a few.

  • 17TH March 2019
    17TH March 2019 Today second Sunday in Lent, the liturgy of the word invariably brings us the evangelic episode of the Lord's Transfiguration. This time, with the nuances typical of St Luke's Gospel. It is Saint Luke who more strongly emphasizes the praying Jesus, the Son who is permanently linked to the Father through personal prayer, at times intimate, hidden, at times in the presence of his disciples, but always full of joy through the Holy Spirit. Let's therefore pay attention to the fact Luke is the only one of the synoptics that begins the narration in this way: «Jesus (...) went up the mountain to pray» (Lk 9:28), and, consequently, it is Luke who specifies that the Master's transfiguration happened «while He was praying» (Lk 9:29). And this is not something irrelevant. The prayer is presented here like the ideal and natural context for the vision of Christ's Glory: when Peter, John and James «awoke (…) and saw Jesus' Glory» (Lk 9:32). But, not only His Glory, but also the glory God had already manifested in the Law and the Prophets; they —evangelist Luke says— «appeared in heavenly glory» (Lk 9:31). For they indeed find their own splendor in the love of the Spirit when the Son speaks to the Father. Thus, in the heart of Holy Trinity, Jesus' Passover, «his departure that had to take place in Jerusalem» (Lk 9:31), is the sign manifesting God's plan, which is carried out in the bosom of Israel's history, until its definite completion, through the death and resurrection of Jesus, the Jesus Incarnated.
