In 2023, Mauritania led global fish liver oil production with 23.6 thousand metric tons, indicating a steady 1.69% year-on-year growth. Iceland and Norway followed, with moderate increases of 2.66% and 1.12%, respectively. Notably, Senegal, Morocco, Oman, and China experienced significant upward trends, with growth rates between 5.92% and 8.45%. Conversely, Peru, Germany, and the Netherlands faced declines, especially Namibia, which ceased production entirely. Over the past five years, these trends reflect varied CAGRs, highlighting a balanced global production environment.
Future trends to watch include technological advancements in fishing and processing, which could enhance efficiency and sustainability. Additionally, the growing demand for omega-3 supplements might drive further production increases in leading countries.
