Tuna Industry Price Fixing Charged by FTC
The Federal Trade Commission charged that nearly all West Coast tuna firms, boat owners, and unions conspired to fix prices and curb competition. Canners and boat-owner groups allegedly set raw and canned tuna prices, with leaders from Van Camp, Star-Kist, and Westgate California Tuna Packing named among those controlling about 70 percent of the pack. The complaint says coops masked as marketing ventures mainly served to sustain noncompetitive prices, restricting fishing for noncompliant canners.
