In 2023, the total stony sea-urchin production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France stood at 12.94 thousand euros per metric ton. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a minimal and consistent year-on-year decrease, with values slightly declining from 12.93 in 2024 to 12.89 in 2028. The average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period shows a consistent downward trend, suggesting a stable but shrinking market for stony sea urchins in France.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in consumer demand, environmental factors affecting sea-urchin populations, and any shifts in regulatory or trade policies impacting capture fisheries. Monitoring these factors will be essential for understanding the market dynamics beyond the current forecast horizon.
