However, as consumers significantly seek alternative protein sources, such as plant-based proteins or other sustainable options, the demand for traditional animal-based products such as frozen tuna is expected to decline. This shift in preference is anticipated to lead to decrease in market share for frozen tuna. Tuna fishes, especially larger species such as bluefin tuna, accumulate higher levels of mercury. Consumer awareness regarding mercury contamination in seafood leads to concerns about the health hazards of consuming tuna. This results in a decline in demand for frozen tuna as consumers opt for lower-mercury seafood alternatives. Increase in awareness regarding environmental issues, including overfishing and the effect of fishing practices on marine ecosystems, influences consumers to choose sustainable seafood options. Furthermore, consumers are becoming highly conscious of the origin and production methods of their food. A lack of clear labeling or certification regarding the sustainability and sourcing of frozen tuna deters environmentally conscious consumers from purchasing these products. Moreover, the price of frozen tuna is influenced by various factors, including fishing practices, transportation costs, and market demand. As alternative protein sources or seafood options become notably cost-competitive, price-sensitive consumers are anticipated to switch to more affordable alternatives, affecting the growth of the frozen tuna market.
