In 2023, whole fresh stargazer production via capture fisheries in France stood at 20 metric tons. Projections suggest a steady upward trend, with production increasing from 21.2 metric tons in 2024 to 26.2 metric tons by 2028. This reflects a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5.3% over the five-year forecast period. Year-on-year variations are between 5.3% and 5.2%, signifying a consistent rise in production levels.

Future trends to monitor include:

The sustainability of stargazer populations and fisheries management policies.
Market demand shifts driven by consumer preferences and price elasticity.
Impact of climate change on marine biodiversity and habitat conditions in France.
