"We really wanted to promote this fishery it really supports the fisherman there and the families of the fisheries there.It's about finding products that preserve seafood and protein for future generations," stated Mind Fish Co.'s CEO Jerry Lin. "I wanted to change your perception from tuna, its more than tuna salad and tuna sandwiches. The Europeans where its really a highly appreciated product that has been around for centuries. You're really capturing the essence of that in a can. It's a fantastic product."

Each can is pole and line caught in the Maldives and delivers fresh light tuna and is a far throw from your average canned tuna. The product will completely reinvent the way you consider canned tuna.
