In 2024, forecasts indicate that the production of fresh deep-water catsharks in France's capture fisheries is expected to reach 0.73 metric tons, with a steady increase to 0.82 metric tons by 2028. The production is predicted to grow year-on-year by approximately 2.74% on average. As of 2023, no specific data is provided. However, assuming a stable trend, projections suggest a continuous upward trajectory in production. A five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of roughly 2.52% is expected from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in regulatory policies impacting marine biodiversity conservation and capture fisheries practices. Additionally, demand fluctuations in local and international seafood markets could influence production strategies.
