MRAG Ltd has a global network of multi-lingual assessors who can conduct traceability audits for fish factories, wholesalers, retailers, traders and vessels. MRAG traceability assessments can be part of a bespoke risk assessment encompassing other risk areas to suit the needs of your business.

MRAG can conduct an independent audit of tuna suppliers to assess their ability to make FAD-Free claims. The audit is an assessment of the FAD-Free fishing policy and practices, and traceability from the specific FAD-Free set within the fishing trip, to the final product.
