In 2023, the UK imported fresh or chilled fish livers and roes amounting to 175.5 thousand kilograms. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 predicts a gradual decline in imports, with values falling from 173.65 to 167.77 thousand kilograms. This indicates a consistent year-on-year decrease, with the highest drop from 2023 to 2024. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period is negative, reflecting an average decrease per year.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in consumer preferences towards alternative seafood products.
- Potential trade policy adjustments post-Brexit.
- Environmental factors impacting fish liver and roe availability.
- Competitive pressures from other European suppliers.
