Paul's trip around the world: Ghana

Last week, we welcomed our long-standing Hanseatic trading partner and one of our tuna suppliers from Ghana.

They brought with them information on the current situation in the various regions. So today we are not just traveling to Ghana, but around the world:

In the Western Central Pacific (WCPO) In Taiwan, China and the Philippines, catch volumes have been low for weeks, but volumes for yellowfin tuna are satisfactory. Quotations on the Bangkok trading floor were USD 1,550 per tonne last week, with MSC-certified raw material at USD 1,650 per tonne.
Although catches in the East Pacific (EPO) In the region of Peru, prices are also high - at USD 1,650 per tonne.
In the Indian and Atlantic Ocean prices have been slightly lower so far, at USD 1,450 per tonne. However, experts expect the price of tuna from the Atlantic to rise. The reason: the upcoming fishing ban (FAD-ban) from March 17 to April 30, 2025.

So when is the best time to buy tuna? What are the prospects? And how can we still make good offers despite rising raw material prices? We answer these and other questions in our regular Food News.

By the way, we have all the world's fishing areas in a graphic summarized for you.
