Nestlé report details labor abuses on Thai ‘slave ships’
Nestle, the world’s largest food company, has acknowledged that it is almost certain that seafood bought from Thailand by itself and other large Western firms is produced by what are effectively modern-day slaves, many of them Cambodian.
In a report, released by Nestlé on 23 November, the US-based non-profit Verité interviewed more than 100 workers in the sector, 80 per cent from Myanmar or Cambodia.
