Pioneer Food Cannery (PFC), Ghana’s largest processor and exporter of tuna fisheries products has began a recruitment process to add to its current workforce to boost its production capacity and to meet its expansion processes.Voted Best Processing Tuna Plant for 2011, the management of the company only last week recruited 200 young able workers to add to the already 1,600 employees to meet its strategic growth, from a crowd of over 500 unemployed who responded to the invitation.This recruitment follows PFC’s on-going growth strategy and plans being implemented since last year to meet ever-growing demands for the high quality products made by PFC under its strong brands in the UK, France and the Netherlands.General Manager of PFC, Mr. Nichol Elizabeth explains: “There are many reasons as to why PFC products are in demand today at abnormal levels’’, adding “our timely and reliable delivery of our quality products to the market are key contributing factors’’.Again, PFC’s finished product quality is supported by accreditations / certifications and the high-level sustainability commitment of the company to the protection of the marine resources, he added.Mr. Elizabeth believes this is definitely a good sign for Ghana’s tuna industry, considering PFC’s role as the industry leader for the past decade and investing an average of 7-8 million US dollars annually on PFC’s expansion and compliance strategy as well as proud Ghanaian heritage.The Pioneer Food cannery (PFC) currently produces approximately 50,000 tons of raw tuna fish per year with the strong expectation of increasing it to 55,000 tons by 2014 and thereby creating another 400-500 jobs in Tema.
