The forecast for gutted frozen seafood production in capture fisheries in France shows a declining trend. Starting from 3.53 thousand euros per metric ton in 2024, the value steadily decreases each year, reaching 2.39 by 2028. The year-on-year decline underscores the challenges in sustaining production values, with significant reduction starting from 2026 onwards, averaging a consistent drop across the forecasted years. In 2023, the actual value would have been above the 2024 figure, marking the beginning of the downturn.
Future trends to watch for include:
- The potential impact of environmental regulations and sustainability initiatives on capture fisheries.
- Technological advancements in seafood processing that may influence production efficiency and cost structures.
- Market demand shifts, possibly prioritizing fresh over frozen options, affecting overall value.
