In 2023, the fresh finfish production in capture fisheries for human consumption in Italy stood around an estimated 395 million Euros. The forecast suggests a steady growth from 2024 to 2028, with values rising from 403.58 million Euros in 2024 to 444.65 million Euros in 2028. Year-on-year growth rates display an upward trend, averaging approximately 1-2% annually.
From 2024 to 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is projected at around 2.4%. Such increase indicates Italy's strong potential in sustainable fisheries and growing demand for fresh finfish products.
Future trends to monitor include the impact of climate change on fish stocks, regulatory changes in sustainable fishing, consumer shifts towards eco-friendly products, and the development of alternative protein sources impacting demand.
