The demand for fish body oil in Germany is projected to decline from 2024 to 2028, with annual consumption decreasing from 8.92 to 7.91 thousand metric tons. This represents a consistent annual decline of approximately 3%, indicating a gradual reduction in demand over this period. In 2023, demand stood at around 9.2 thousand metric tons, showing a steady downward trend anticipated to continue in the coming years.
Future trends to watch for include changes in consumer preferences toward plant-based or alternative Omega-3 sources, regulatory developments affecting fishing and imports, and innovations in sustainability within the fish oil industry. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for understanding shifts in market dynamics.
