Japan tuna price soars past $270,000 at New Year auction
The top-selling tuna at Tokyo's traditional New Year auction sold for more than $270,000 yesterday, nearly double last year's price, breaking a pandemic trend of slumping demand.
Michelin-starred sushi restaurant Onodera Group and Japanese wholesaler Yamayuki forked out 36.04 million yen ($273,000) for the
212-kilo bluefin tuna in the auction at Tokyo's Toyosu fish market.
