Denmark remains the global leader in fresh or chilled whole mackerel exports with a significant market share, while the United Kingdom and Norway follow. Noteworthy increases came from countries such as Myanmar and the Netherlands, reflecting over 4% growth. However, several countries including Russia, Germany, and the United States faced downturns in their export values. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the past five years reveals a competitive market with Iceland showing remarkable growth of over 46%. In contrast, countries like India and Thailand experienced substantial declines, impacting the overall market dynamics.
Future trends to watch include sustainability practices affecting fishing quotas and policies, which may alter both country-level contributions and competitive dynamics. Technological advancements in fishing and transportation could also shift the market share landscape, providing opportunities for growth in emerging mackerel-exporting countries. Additionally, evolving consumer demand for sustainable and traceable seafood could influence trade flows and thus modify the export distribution of fresh or chilled whole mackerel globally.
