In 2023, the production of whole fresh banded carpet shell in capture fisheries for human consumption in France was recorded, setting a baseline for the forecasted data beginning in 2024. The projections indicate a significant downward trend, with production anticipated to decrease steadily from 23.6 metric tons in 2024 to 10.8 metric tons by 2028. The year-on-year changes denote consistent declines, highlighting an average reduction of production volume by approximately 14% annually over this time frame.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impacts of environmental changes and overfishing affecting the species' availability.
Regulatory adjustments that might impact sustainable fishing practices and production levels.
Market demand shifts potentially influenced by consumer preferences and alternative seafood options.
