In 2023, the production of prepared meals and dishes based on fish, crustaceans, and molluscs in France stood at a crucial juncture. Forecast data from 2024 to 2028 suggests a gradual decline in production volume, starting at 107.07 million kilograms in 2024 and decreasing steadily to 98.538 million kilograms in 2028. This decline indicates a consistent year-on-year decrease, reflecting potential shifts in consumer preferences or market dynamics.

Key trends to watch for in the future include:

The impact of sustainability trends and environmental concerns on seafood-based products.
Changes in consumer dietary preferences towards alternative proteins or plant-based options.
Regulatory changes affecting seafood sourcing and production processes.
The role of innovation in product development to revitalize interest in seafood meals.
