In 2023, the total queen scallop production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France was estimated to be 4.34 million euros. From 2024 to 2028, the value is forecast to grow steadily by approximately 4-5% year-on-year, increasing from 4.53 million euros in 2024 to 5.32 million euros in 2028. This indicates a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 4.12% over the five-year period. The consistent increase suggests a robust demand for queen scallops.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts from climate change on marine life, regulatory changes in fisheries management, and shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable seafood options, which could influence production and market dynamics.
