Prices of canned sardines are experiencing an unprecedented significant increase, especially for 125 g, which is the most demanded product. Prices are now set at EUR/FOB 20.00-21.00 for one carton of 50 cans while only EUR/FOB 17.00-18.00 a few months ago. This considerable price increase is mainly due to the rise of the price of empty cans by 50%, which is the main cost element when it comes to measuring the final price of one can of sardines of 125g.
