In 2023, the total mollusc production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France was at 3.50 thousand euros per metric ton. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady increase: 3.56, 3.62, 3.68, 3.73, and 3.79 thousand euros per metric ton, respectively. The year-on-year growth rates are projected to be approximately 1.7% to 1.6% for each year within this period.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable seafood options, regulatory changes affecting fisheries, and the impact of climate change on mollusc habitats. These factors may alter production levels and pricing dynamics in the coming years.
