The forecast for whole fresh tope shark production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France indicates a steady decline. In 2023, the value stood at an estimated baseline from which the series descends dramatically. Forecasted values suggest a year-on-year decrease: 2024 to 2025 at 9.0%, 2025 to 2026 at 9.8%, 2026 to 2027 at 10.8%, and 2027 to 2028 at 11.9%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five years is around -10.2%, reflecting a consistent downtrend.
Future trends to watch for include shifts in regulatory frameworks impacting tope shark fishing, changes in consumer demand for shark products, and sustainability initiatives potentially influencing fishing quotas and practices. These could dramatically affect production levels and market dynamics moving forward.
