Skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) is one of Indonesia’s most valuable seafood export commodities. Known locally as ikan cakalang, this fast-swimming pelagic fish is favored for its lean meat, rich flavor, and versatility in global seafood markets.
Indo Seafood is your trusted source for fresh skipjack tuna exports, directly harvested from local fishermen in Eastern Indonesia and delivered fresh via airfreight to clients in Japan, Dubai, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia.
