In 2023, Italy led European Bluefish production in capture fisheries with significant growth. Greece and Bulgaria showed modest increases, while Spain experienced a slight decline in share. France witnessed an impressive rise, contrasting with Croatia’s notable decrease. Slovenia managed a slight recovery, whereas Portugal's and others had minimal change.
Future trends to monitor include sustainable practices influencing production methods, potential impacts of climate change on fish populations, and shifts in consumer demand for bluefish along with any regulatory changes that may affect the fishing industry in Europe. These factors could significantly impact the production and distribution of bluefish in the region.
