Raw and frozen tuna are lined up at the tuna wholesale area, and a representative of a middle wholesaler greets, `` I hope that many tuna are lined up at the auction hall, and I hope that there will be a lot of liveliness. '' I prayed for business prosperity for one year.

Then, when the auction began with a bell signal after 5:00 am, big tuna were being auctioned off one after another with a vigorous shout.

It was expensive, but it was the best for customers I wanted to deliver the tuna. I want them to eat delicious tuna at the store. "
