In 2023, the production of gutted fresh sand sole in capture fisheries in France was recorded at 108.45 metric tons. The subsequent forecast data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradually declining trend, with the production projected to decrease slightly each year. By 2028, it is expected to fall to 108.04 metric tons. Year-on-year changes illustrate a consistent decrease, with a marginal average contraction annually, indicating a stable but slightly decreasing market. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over these five years reflects this subtle decline in production.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential impacts of regulatory changes on capture fisheries.
- Shifts in consumer preference toward sustainable seafood options.
- Technological advancements in fishery methods that may impact yield efficiency.
