The tuna fish market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $34.23 billion in 2023 to $35.38 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be ascribed to heightened consumer awareness of health advantages, a surge in the demand for seafood products, global population growth, urbanization, the rise in the middle-class population, and the globalization of supply chains.
The tuna fish market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $40.04 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.1%. The anticipated expansion in the forecast period can be linked to a sustained focus on promoting healthy eating habits, advancements in packaging for added convenience, the adoption of sustainable fishing practices and certifications, an increasing demand for ready-to-eat foods, and the growth of seafood retail channels. Noteworthy trends expected in the forecast period encompass regulatory adjustments, the impacts of climate change, evolving health and nutrition preferences, disruptions in global supply chains, the continued growth of retail and e-commerce, as well as cultural and regional preferences.
The considerable increase in tuna consumption is a significant factor contributing to the anticipated growth of the tuna fish market. Tuna fish, belonging to the genus Thunnus and comprising seven oceanic species, holds substantial commercial value as a food source. Consumed for its nutritional benefits, convenience, and versatility in cooking, tuna is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and essential nutrients. Notably, data from the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES) reveals that tuna fish production rose from $165 million in 2021 to $169 million in 2022, affirming the positive impact of increasing tuna consumption on the tuna fish market.
The growth of the tuna fish market is expected to be driven by the expanding global population. Population, encompassing the total number of individuals in a specific area or region, influences the demand for food, including seafood, as it rises. Tuna, being a popular protein source, experiences heightened consumption with the growth of the global population. The United Nations predicts a potential increase in the global population to approximately 8.5 billion by 2030, 9.7 billion by 2050, and 10.4 billion by 2100. Additionally, the Congressional Budget Office projects an increase in the US population from 335 million in 2022 to 369 million in 2052. Consequently, the upward trajectory of the population is expected to be a driving force behind the growth of the tuna fish market.
A prominent trend gaining traction in the tuna fish market is product innovation. Key players in the market are dedicated to developing new tuna fish products to meet evolving consumer preferences and growing health consciousness. As an illustration, in June 2022, Maldives Industrial Fisheries Company Limited (MIFCO), a company in the fishing industry based in the Maldives, introduced a novel canned tuna product named Drained Tuna Chunks. This product distinguishes itself from the company's previous canned tuna offerings by featuring reduced oil content. Notably, the new tuna cans eliminate the need to drain oil, alleviating common inconveniences associated with using canned tuna.
