The wholesale prices of bluefin tuna, both fresh and frozen, have seen a significant decrease at Tokyo's Toyosu market, with fresh tuna prices dropping 23% from their August 2023 peak to US$24.4 per kg, and frozen tuna prices declining by nearly US$6.6/kg since December 2022 to US$22.3/kg. This downturn is largely due to a fall in consumption in major Asian markets such as Japan, South Korea, and China, leading to a 40% reduction in retail prices for chu-toro sashimi since December 2022. Additionally, the average import price of Maltese bluefin tuna fillets has halved to US$13.08 per kg year-on-year, influenced by decreased purchasing power in South Korea, prompting potential re-exports of Mediterranean tuna to Japan.
