In 2023, Germany’s fresh burbot production in capture fisheries for human consumption was valued at 3.98 thousand euros per metric ton. Forecasts indicate a steady increase from 2024, beginning with 4.06 thousand euros, reaching 4.40 thousand euros by 2028. Annually, this reflects an estimated year-on-year growth of approximately 2%, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 2.03% over the five-year forecast period, pointing towards a consistent upward trend in valuation.

Future trends to watch for include:

The influence of environmental policies and sustainability measures that may affect capture fisheries.
Consumer shifts towards sustainable seafood which could increase demand.
Global economic conditions impacting consumers' purchasing power and demand for premium seafood products like burbot.
