The production of whole fresh banded murex for human consumption in France, as of 2023, stood at 17.3 metric tons. Forecasts for 2024 to 2028 indicate a steady year-on-year increase in production: 1.7% from 2024 to 2025, 1.7% from 2025 to 2026, 1.1% from 2026 to 2027, and 0.5% from 2027 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year span from 2023 to 2028 is projected at approximately 1.34%, reflecting modest but consistent growth.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer demand, changes in fishing regulations, environmental impacts on murex habitats, and technological advancements in capture fisheries that could further influence production rates and efficiency.
