The UK's production in capture fisheries for whole fresh squids, cuttlefishes, and octopuses is forecasted to mildly increase from 2024 to 2028, starting at 6.25 thousand metric tons in 2024 and reaching 6.55 by 2028. The year-on-year growth rates reflect a consistent increase of approximately 1.3% annually. This trend portrays a steady rising trajectory from 2023 as the production stood at 6.17 thousand metric tons.

Future trends to watch for include:

The adaptation in fishing practices and technologies to sustain marine biodiversity could impact capture volumes.
Changes in consumer preferences towards sustainable seafood might influence demand.
Policy shifts and international relations affecting UK fisheries could alter supply dynamics.
