A sputtering target consists of a sintered body having a component composition consisting of: Ga of 10 to 40 at. % and Na of 0.1 to 15 at. % as metal elements; and the balance being Cu and inevitable impurities. The sintered body contains the Na in a form of Na compounds consisting of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of sodium sulfate, sodium sulfite, sodium selenate, and sodium selenite, the sintered body has a composition in which a Na compound phase is dispersed, and an average grain size of the Na compound phase is 10 μm or less.
