The forecast for canned fish and shellfish imports in the US indicates a steady growth from 809.07 million pounds in 2024 to 842.72 million pounds by 2028. This consistent increase suggests a stable demand for these products over the forecast period. Import volumes in 2023 were slightly lower, marking the beginning of an upward trend in subsequent years.
Year-on-year growth in import volumes will average around 1.5% to 1.8%, signaling moderate but consistent increases. Over the five-year period through 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is projected to reveal sustained expansion.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences toward sustainable and exotic seafood options, regulatory impacts on seafood imports, and any economic fluctuations that could affect purchasing power or supply chain dynamics.
