The forecast for whole frozen molluscs production in UK capture fisheries for human consumption shows a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, with values rising from 2.27 to 2.35 thousand euros per metric ton. In 2023, the value stood at 2.25 thousand euros per metric ton. Year-on-year growth is consistent at approximately 0.88%, with a compound annual growth rate of about 0.88% over the 5-year period from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from changes in fishing policies, environmental conditions affecting mollusc populations, and shifts in consumer demand for sustainable seafood options, which could influence both production and market value.
