In 2023, Italy led European flounder production with a specific value, followed by Spain and Finland. Notably, Lithuania saw the most significant growth, while Bulgaria, Belgium, Netherlands, Norway, and Poland experienced declines. Estonia and Latvia emerged with positive growth trends. These fluctuations indicate varying dynamics in the capture fisheries industry.
Looking ahead, there is potential for Italy and Spain to maintain strong production. Upward trends in Finland and growth momentum in lower-tier countries like Lithuania and Estonia may influence future competition. Monitoring sustainability and regulatory impacts will be vital to understanding long-term sector developments.
