In accordance with the terms of the contract, the Kato Office will act as a distributor of ocean tuna products in auction centres and seafood chains of Kato’s partners.

As scheduled, Bidifisco will send the first shipment of tuna to Japan via air route on August 6.

Previously, Bidifisco had inked contracts to buy ocean tuna with five Japanese fishing boats using advanced technology.

From late July to early August, the fishing vessels have caught 54 ocean tuna with an average weight of 40-50 kilogram’s each.
