In 2023, Belgium's fisheries exports stood at 1.00 billion US dollars. From the forecasted data for 2024 to 2028, exports show a very modest upward trend, reaching 1.02 billion US dollars by 2028. The year-on-year growth between 2024 and 2025 remains flat at 0%. From 2025 to 2026, there is an increase of about 0.99%, followed by stability.
