In 2023, the total blue shark production in capture fisheries in France stood at 53.0 metric tons. From 2024 to 2028, the forecasted figures indicate a slight yet consistent increase annually, moving from 53.1 metric tons in 2024 to 53.4 metric tons in 2028. The year-on-year growth rates reflect a stable and minor increment of approximately 0.2% per annum. Over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is relatively flat, emphasizing sustainability rather than rapid expansion.
Future trends to watch for in this segment include:
- Environmental policies on marine biodiversity which may impact fishing quotas and practices.
- Technological advances in fishing methodologies that could enhance efficiency and sustainability.
- Market demand fluctuations influenced by consumer awareness and global seafood trading dynamics.
