In 2023, the freshwater fish import volume in Germany stood at approximately 470.00 thousand metric tons. The forecasted data for 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline. By 2028, imports are expected to decrease to 463.77 thousand metric tons. The year-on-year variation demonstrates a steady decline, showing a pattern of slight annual reduction. The compound annual growth rate reflects a consistent downward trend over these five years.
Future trends to watch include changes in consumer preferences towards sustainable and locally sourced fish, which may further impact import volumes. Additionally, ongoing regulatory changes and environmental considerations could drive further shifts in demand and supply dynamics in the German fish market.
