About Ostsee Fisch
Ostsee Fisch is a German brand dating from 1950 whose name means Baltic Sea fish. Thai Union describes it as offering honest seafood and craftsmanship through authentic recipes, with classic smoked and marinated specialities rather than the plain canned tuna that makes up most of the group's volume. It is the third of its German brands, alongside Rügen Fisch and Hawesta.
