In 2023, Canada was the leading exporter of fresh or chilled lobsters, followed by the United States. Most countries showed modest year-on-year growth, with notable increases from Denmark, Norway, and Morocco. Conversely, India and Romania experienced declines. Over the last five years, countries like Brunei and Latvia exhibited significant growth, although from a smaller base.
Future trends to watch include potential shifts due to climate change and sustainability concerns affecting lobster populations. Countries may also leverage advancements in aquaculture to enhance production. Additionally, trade dynamics influenced by geopolitical changes could impact export values.
