In 2023, the UK production of gutted frozen megrims stood at metric tons. Forecasts indicate a progressive increase from 2024 to 2028, with a notable yearly growth rate. Specifically, production is expected to rise by 5.3% in 2025, 5.1% in 2026, 4.8% in 2027, and 4.4% in 2028. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is projected to be around 4.8%, suggesting a stable upward trend in production volumes.

Future trends to monitor include:

Potential impacts of climate change on fish populations and regional capture yields.
Changes in UK fisheries policies post-Brexit that could affect production levels.
Technological advancements in fishing and processing that may influence efficiency and capacity.
