The forecast for the import of frozen whole salmon (Atlantic or Danube) to the US from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline. The value in 2023 stood at 2.79 million kilograms. Year-on-year, the imports are expected to decrease slightly by approximately 0.6% to 0.7% annually. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year forecast period suggests a conservative average reduction per year.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Regulatory changes impacting exports and imports due to environmental or trade policies.
- Shifts in consumer preferences toward alternative seafood options or sustainability-driven purchasing.
- Potential impacts from shifts in global salmon production hotspots.
