The import of frozen whole haddock to the UK is set to grow from 17.258 million kilograms in 2024 to 18.999 million kilograms by 2028. This represents an approximate year-on-year increase of 2.6%. In 2023, the imports were 16.832 million kilograms, indicating a steady upward trend over the forecast period. With a compound annual growth rate of about 2.5%, the demand for imported frozen whole haddock is expected to strengthen, driven by consistent consumer demand and possible supply chain optimization.
Future trends to monitor include potential shifts in consumer preferences, developments in global fishery management practices, and trade policies post-Brexit that could impact import volumes. Attention should also be paid to sustainability initiatives and their influence on sourcing strategies.
