In 2023, Spain led the European Seafood Processing wages and salaries share, with notable year-on-year increases in Lithuania (14.97%) and Hungary (61.05%), indicating regional wage growth disparities.

Regions with existing high wage shares could face plateauing growth, while Eastern European countries might see a continued upward trajectory, balancing local employment demands and economic expansion.
