In 2023, China dominated global exports of prepared or preserved clams, cockles, and arkshells with a significant lead, followed by the United Kingdom and Indonesia. The most notable year-on-year growth was observed for Hungary at 47.89%, while Canada and India faced declining exports. Japan showed considerable growth at 20.43%, highlighting its expanding market presence. Although the United States and South Korea saw marginal declines, these did not heavily impact their positions within the top exporters.
Future trends to watch include:
- Potential for market expansion in Japan owing to recent growth.
- Uncertain outlook for the United States and Canada if current trends persist.
- Watch for emerging market opportunities and increased competitiveness in the Czech Republic and Malaysia due to high recent growth rates.
