In 2023, the Russian Federation led global fish consumption with 3.54 million metric tons, followed by South Korea, Mexico, and Brazil. Countries like Canada and the UK showed lower figures, with Australia and Switzerland at the bottom. Analyzing forecasted trends, Mexico's fish consumption is set to increase substantially by 2030, reaching a 1.08% year-on-year variation. Conversely, the UK and South Korea display a declining trend. A five-year CAGR underscores consistent growth in Canada's and Australia's consumption, with emerging economies like Brazil and Switzerland showing modest increases.
Future trends to watch include potential consumption shifts due to environmental policies, advancements in aquaculture, and dietary changes in response to health trends and sustainability. Economic factors and trade relations may also influence fish consumption patterns across these countries.
