In 2023, the whole fresh European flounder production in capture fisheries in France stood at a base value upon which subsequent forecasts are projected. From 2024 to 2028, the production value is expected to see steady year-on-year growth: a 2.2% increase in 2025, followed by around 2.1% growth annually through 2028, culminating in a long-term Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.1%. This steady upward trend indicates positive growth prospects for the European flounder capture fisheries market in France.

Future trends to watch for include:

Sustainability practices that may impact fishery yields and market supply.
The influence of climate change on marine ecosystems affecting flounder habitats.
Regulatory changes within the European Union fisheries policies that could alter production dynamics.
