Made in a Free World have a range of tools to addresses slavery in general and slavery in the seafood sector.



They focus on business activities (by awareness raising and risk assessment) as well as changing consumer behaviour. Tools include ‘slavery footprint’ survey (consumers can test which of the products they buy are made with the help of slaves) and the Forced Labor Risk Determination & Mitigation (FRDM) software that locates and addresses risks in the supply chain. Additionally they conduct field programs, including programs supporting victims after their rescue.


Significance for seafood businesses:

Not seafood-specific. There are a number of organisations that offer practical business support to help manage socially responsible business practices. There are also various tools and guidance notes available which are free to use which will help buyers manage their supply chain and make a more informed judgement on the risks they face when sourcing seafood.
