In 2023, France dominated European Total Spotted Ray Production in capture fisheries for human consumption, holding a 52.49% share, but experiencing a significant decrease of 15.16% from previous years. The United Kingdom, though smaller in share at 13.82%, saw a modest increase of 2.91%. The Netherlands, at 11.3%, also experienced a decline by 5.23%. Both Portugal and Spain had marginal shares of around 7%, with Spain showing a substantial increase of 10.12%, while Portugal declined by 5.84%. Italy managed a remarkable 23.45% increase, albeit from a smaller base, indicating growth momentum amongst smaller players.
Looking forward, stakeholders in the European spotted ray market should monitor France's ability to recover its market share, while observing whether the growth trends in the UK and Spain continue, and if Italy can build on its recent gains in the coming years. The competitive landscape may shift as countries respond differently to environmental policies and consumer demand dynamics.
