Email sent to the general manager of BCI Compliance Group, Steamer He.
The email said: "We are contacting you in light of our latest investigation which concerns the use of forced labor in China’s seafood processing industry. We have found visual evidence of North Korean workers at a plant in Liaoning Province called Donggang Jinhui Foodstuff. While we are unable to share the evidentiary materials with you at this time, we can say it includes videos of North Koreans at Donggang Jinhui in 2023. Certification details posted by the company on its website show it passed a SMETA Sedex audit conducted by BCI Compliance Group Ltd. in December 2022. Can you clarify if any North Korean workers were identified at the site by this audit?"
