Thailand is the world's leading exporter of canned tuna, with exports valued at $2.08 billion in 2023.[1][2][4] The top five canned tuna export markets for Thailand in 2023 were the US ($482 million), Japan ($257 million), Australia ($173 million), Libya ($150 million), and Saudi Arabia ($138 million).[2][4] Thailand's canned tuna exports grew 13.4% in value and 19.39% in volume in the first five months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.[2] Factors supporting Thailand's tuna export growth include lower tuna costs, growing demand for halal food, and geopolitical risks leading to increased stockpiling.[2][4] To maintain its position as the top exporter, Thailand needs to focus on quality control, traceability, sustainability, and expanding into new markets like the Middle East and Europe.[2][4]
