Global Tuna Market Trends:
The establishment of commercial spaces, such as cafes, restaurants, and luxury hotels, is catalyzing the demand for tuna in sushi, sashimi, sandwiches, pizza, pasta, steaks, burgers, wraps, and salad. This, coupled with the thriving food and beverage (F&B) industry, represents one of the major factors fueling the market growth around the world. Moreover, the increasing number of consumers that are opting for lean meat and protein-rich food like tuna in their daily diets is favoring the growth of the market. In addition, the growing consumption of seafood like tuna on account of the rising awareness among individuals about its health benefits is influencing the market positively.

Furthermore, the growing farming of aquatic animals and significant improvement in seafood productivity is creating a positive outlook for the market.
