The import of frozen, dried, salted, or in brine crustaceans to Germany has shown modest growth from 2024 to 2028, with forecasts indicating a gradual increase from 40.351 to 42.795 million kilograms. Compared to 2023, where imports were slightly under 40 million kilograms, the trend moves upward, with the most significant year-on-year increase occurring early in the forecast period. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years suggests continuous albeit slow growth.
Future trends to watch include:
- Global economic conditions affecting import capacities.
- Sustainability practices impacting crustacean fishing and availability.
- Changing consumer preferences towards seafood consumption in Germany.
