In 2023, Norway dominated Europe's whole fresh Atlantic herring production in capture fisheries, representing the largest share at 80.98%, with significant growth of 13.86% year-on-year. The United Kingdom and Iceland follow, collectively holding less than 8% of the market. Noteworthy is Finland's decline of 9.5% and Sweden's sharp dip of 18.06%.
