In 2023, Italy imported approximately 1.8965 million kilograms of frozen whole cod. Forecasted figures suggest a steady increase in imports, with values projected at 1.9179 million kilograms in 2024, reaching 2.0048 million kilograms by 2028. Year-on-year percentage increases are modest, indicating a gradual upward trend. Specifically, the annual growth ranges from about 1.1% to 1.3%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the 2024-2028 period averages around 1.1%.
Future trends to watch include potential changes in consumer dietary habits, shifts in international trade policies, or economic conditions that could impact import volumes. Additionally, sustainability concerns related to fishing practices may influence cod availability and demand.
