In 2023, Norway dominated European Total Northern Prawn Production in capture fisheries for human consumption, contributing a substantial share with 72.82% of the value. Iceland followed with 12.45%, while Sweden accounted for 7.23%, and Denmark contributed 5.71%. Italy, Germany, and Portugal held smaller shares, with Italy seeing a notable year-on-year increase of 11.88%. Although Germany had a growth of 5.21%, it still contributed only a minor portion compared to leading nations. The United Kingdom showed a year-on-year increase of 7.64%, reflecting a positive trend from its already low base.
Future trends to watch include the possibility of Southern European countries increasing their shares due to rising domestic demand and ongoing efforts to diversify fisheries. Continuous environmental regulations could impact the capture sectors in Northern Europe, prompting shifts toward sustainable practices. Sweden's contraction trend may stabilize, but substantial growth in Norway and Denmark remains likely.
