The forecasted import values of flours, meals, and pellets of fish for human consumption to the UK show a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, starting at 187.53 thousand kilograms in 2024 and reaching 197.61 thousand kilograms by 2028. In 2023, the actual imports stood below these forecasted figures. The year-on-year growth rates are marginal, reflecting a cautious but consistent rise over the years 2024 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for this period suggests an average annual increase.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts of trade agreements on import conditions, innovations in alternative protein sources reducing reliance on fish products, and any regulatory changes affecting food safety or environmental standards.
