In 2023, the production of whole fresh shagreen ray in capture fisheries for human consumption in France was set at 130 metric tons. Forecast data indicate steady growth from 2024 to 2028, rising from 131.5 metric tons in 2024 to 133.86 metric tons in 2028, denoting a gradual annual increase. Year-on-year variations show a consistent positive trend, with minor increments, reflecting resilience or potential stability in market demand. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period is minimal, suggesting subdued but consistent growth.
Future trends to watch for include potential fluctuations in fishery yields due to environmental factors and regulatory changes impacting capture fisheries. Economic conditions and consumer dietary preferences can also influence demand trends for shagreen ray consumption.
