Premium Southern Bluefin Tuna

The Dinko Difference: Premium Southern Bluefin Tuna

Dinko Southern Bluefin Tuna has built a reputation for its commitment to quality and sustainability.

Known for its exceptional quality and unparalleled flavour, Dinko premium Southern Bluefin tuna delivers an exceptional culinary experience that reflects the best of what this remarkable fish has to offer.

Premium Sourcing

The Southern Bluefin tuna supplied by Dinko is sourced from the Eyre Peninsula, one of the world’s cleanest and most well-managed fisheries. With the Spencer Gulf to the east, the Great Australian Bight to the west, and the Gawler Ranges to the north, the Eyre Peninsula is famous for its pristine waters and abundant marine life.

At Dinko, we only select tuna that meets the highest standards of quality. Our tuna is celebrated for its superior quality, characterised by its deep red flesh, rich marbling, and buttery texture.

The fat content, particularly in the belly area known as otoro, is exceptionally high, giving it a luxurious, melt-in-the-mouth experience. This quality makes Dinko tuna a preferred choice for high-end restaurants and gourmet food experiences.

Our fishing method

Dinko’s lasting legacy is as the pioneer of the catching and ranching method of tuna farming.

This innovative tuna farming method helped replenish Southern Bluefin Tuna stocks and continues to protect this beautiful fish.

Focused on increasing the weight of captured tuna during captivity rather than taking more fish from our oceans, this method has been instrumental in revitalising the Southern Bluefin Tuna population in South Australia.

Fed on a rich, natural diet that allows them to grow in size while maintaining their quality, we then harvest our caught Southern Bluefin Tuna using the humane Japanese ‘iki jime’ technique. This method minimises stress and maximises the quality of the fish.

Sustainability and ethical practices

Dinko’s commitment to sustainability is a core aspect of its operation. The company adheres to rigorous standards for responsible fishing and environmental stewardship.

At every stage of the fishing process, Dinko ensures that its products are of the highest quality and produced in an environmentally conscious manner.

We own and manage our own fishing vessels and processing factory, exporting premium sustainably-caught Southern Bluefin Tuna, Australian Sardines and Western King Prawns.

The state and Commonwealth Governments manage our fisheries through strict quota programs to ensure the industry’s sustainability. They also regularly conduct water quality audits and assess the region’s marine ecosystems to guarantee its clean, green reputation.

Dinko is proud to be accredited by the Marine Stewardship Council, the Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT), Friend of the Sea, and Dolphin Safe. We are also part of the ‘Adopt a Beach’ program to monitor, clean up, and minimise debris impact on the Spencer Gulf coastline.

Once the tuna is caught, Dinko employs a state-of-the-art processing facility to ensure that the fish is handled with the utmost care. The tuna is processed quickly and efficiently to preserve its delicate texture and flavour. Dinko’s advanced handling and storage techniques maintain the fish’s peak freshness, resulting in a product that consistently meets the high standards of discerning chefs and seafood enthusiasts.
