President Muizzu delivers on promise as MIFCO raises tuna price to MVR 20

The Maldives Industrial Fisheries Company (MIFCO) increased the purchase price for skipjack tuna to MVR 20 per kilogram, fulfilling President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu's promise to support the fishing community. The new price is effective immediately at MIFCO's processing facilities in Felivaru, Kooddoo, and Addu, as well as harbors in GDh. Thinadhoo, GDh. Faresmaathodaa, GDh. Gadhdhoo, and HA. Ihavandhoo. This follows an earlier revision to MVR 18.50 on the 7th of the month. Yellowfin tuna prices remain unchanged: MVR 20 for 10-15 kg, MVR 25 for above 15 kg. The increase aims to boost fishermen's income and confidence in the fisheries sector.
