Global tuna prices are stable with skipjack prices on the rise in major processing centers like Bangkok and Manta, despite a fishing ban that has reduced activities. The price for December delivery in Bangkok is predicted to be close to $1,600 per ton, and in the Philippines, MSC-certified skipjack tuna costs over $1,700 per ton. Yellowfin tuna prices vary by region, with Spain at $2,500 - $2,550 per ton and Italy at around $2,600 per ton.

In the Indian Ocean, skipjack prices have dropped due to increased catches, while in the Atlantic, prices are similar to the Indian Ocean.
