In 2023, France's production of gutted fresh blue shark from capture fisheries was 32.8 metric tons. Forecasts for 2024-2028 indicate a consistent decline. Between 2024 and 2025, the production decreases by 7.2%, followed by a 6.4% decline in 2026, a 5.3% drop in 2027, and a 4.8% reduction in 2028. Over these five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is -5.5%.
Future trends to watch include regulatory changes impacting fisheries, consumer sentiment towards shark meat, and any shifts in ecological conditions or marine biodiversity that could further influence production levels.
