In 2023, the production of alive fresh flounders, halibuts, and soles for human consumption in France was 1 metric ton. Forecasts from 2024 to 2027 show a steady production level at 1 metric ton annually, with a slight increase to 1.1 metric tons in 2028. The year-on-year percentage increase in 2028 is 10%. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for the 5-year period from 2024 to 2028 is approximately 1.92%.

Future trends to watch for include:

Changes in consumer demand for fresh seafood could influence production levels, potentially driving efforts to increase sustainable fishing practices.
Regulatory impacts and environmental policies in the European Union may affect fishing quotas and production capabilities.
Technological advancements in aquaculture might offer alternative methods to increase yield efficiency.
