The forecast for France’s alive fresh Great Atlantic scallop production valued in capture fisheries for human consumption suggests a steady growth from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 72.319 million Euros in 2024, it is projected to rise to 91.889 million Euros by 2028. Assuming 2023 serves as a baseline for comparison, the annual increase places the 2024 prediction with moderate growth. Significant trends suggest an upward trajectory in production value, potentially fueled by rising demand or enhanced fishing practices.

Future trends to watch include:

Potential impacts of climate change on scallop populations and harvesting conditions.
Evolving EU fisheries policies that could affect catch quotas.
Innovation in sustainable fishing technologies that may influence production volumes.
Market dynamics, including shifts in consumer preferences and international trade agreements.
