DID YOU KNOW?

TUNA IS One of the most popular AND ECONOMICALLY VALUABLE seafoods.

Tuna can be found in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian oceans AS WELL AS THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA.

Many stocks are healthy and being fished sustainably (around 25% of global tuna catch are currently MSC certified, so plenty to choose from). Other stocks are still overfished, so it’s vital you choose your tuna with care! Tuna are some of the fastest swimmers in the ocean. Some yellowfin tuna have had burst speeds recorded of around 30mph.
