In 2023, Canada led the global export market of fresh or chilled whole halibut with exports valued at $108.54 million. Norway and Denmark followed, but the United States saw a decline in its export value by -8.65%. Noticeable positive shifts were seen in Belgium with an 8.12% increase and Poland with a significant rise of 78.34%, albeit from a small base. The market saw modest growth from countries like South Korea and Estonia, while major drops were recorded in Egypt and Germany.
Looking ahead, global demand for halibut might concentrate more on sustainable sourcing and eco-friendliness, influencing future export trends. Monitoring economic conditions and consumption patterns in major importing countries will be critical.
