Market Overview:

India tuna market size is projected to exhibit a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.30% during ​2024-2032​. The increasing advances in fishing technology, such as improved vessels and gear, that can impact the efficiency and sustainability of tuna fishing operations, are driving the market.

Tuna is a saltwater fish known for its sleek body, powerful swimming abilities, and economic importance in fisheries. Belonging to the Thunnini tribe, tuna species include the bluefin, yellowfin, and skipjack, among others. Renowned for their speed and endurance, tunas can swim great distances in search of prey. Their streamlined bodies, designed for swift movement, feature retractable fins and a forked tail. Tuna are highly sought after in the commercial fishing industry for their flavorful, nutritious flesh, rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Canned tuna is a popular food product, providing a convenient source of protein. However, overfishing and environmental concerns, such as bycatch and habitat destruction, pose significant challenges to tuna populations. Sustainable fishing practices and conservation efforts are essential to ensure the long-term viability of tuna and maintain ecological balance in marine ecosystems.
