The European crustacean production landscape in 2023 was led by Norway at €247.06 million, followed by Italy (€190.17 million) and Spain (€179.85 million). The UK and France also remained strong, with positive growth noted in Norway and sustained slight gains in the UK and Portugal. Contrarily, Italy and Spain saw reductions, along with significant declines in Iceland. Smaller producers like Cyprus and Slovenia experienced notable year-on-year growth, despite their low initial volumes.
Future trends to monitor include potential policy impacts on fisheries, shifts in demand driven by sustainability considerations, and technological advancements enhancing production efficiency, which may alter competitiveness among these countries.
